Current Research
My research uses principles from a number of different scientific fields to understand the terrestrial carbon cycle and the impact of humans on carbon pools and fluxes. Through integration of atmospheric, biometric, and climatological information, I am focused on understanding the characteristics and drivers of atmosphere-biosphere exchange of carbon.
