Viens and his colleague Kate E. White, a career soil scientist in the Agroecology Lab directed by K. Ann Bybee-Finley at North Carolina State University, both listen intently as their colleague and member of the Sustainability Lake Chad project, Adam Lawan Ngala, explains some of the standards in soil sampling analysis in Nigeria. This was during the team’s January 2026 Workshop on Bayesian Statistics for Sustainability Science, organized by Viens and his team in Abuja, Nigeria. Lawan Ngala, a prominent Nigerian soil scientist, is a native of Borno State, and grew up in a rural household in the village of Ngala, where Viens’ team has interviewed farmers, fishermen and herders, and has collected soil samples. Lawan Ngala speaks fluent Kanuri, the local language.
