Research expertise

I am a plant biologist and ecosystem ecologist. I make use of a variety of research techniques including: eddy covariance and chamber-based gas exchange analyses, stable isotope analyses, and some remote sensing measurements to study the structure and function of plants and ecosystems in the context of global change. I have previously studied in a variety of ecosystems including: Great Plains grasslands and adjacent riparian cottonwood forests, boreal and Rocky Mountain forests, boreal peatlands, agricultural crops, and freshwater mineral wetlands (bulrush marshes).

Topics:

Ecosystem carbon cycling and water budgets, controls on ecosystem-atmosphere methane exchange processes, use of stable isotope techniques to study aspects of plant and ecosystem function, controls on plant and ecosystem water-use efficiency
