My general research interests are in environmental science, ecosystem ecology, biogeochemistry, and wetland ecology. I’m interested in the effects of changing climate, such as warming temperatures, changes in precipitation, longer thawed seasons, and shifts in vegetation, on ecosystem processes and emissions of greenhouse gases (such as carbon dioxide and methane) from peatlands and permafrost soils. I pair experimental and observational analyses with data synthesis and modeling to develop a broad, landscape-scale understanding of controls on regional carbon cycling that can be used to improve the quantification of carbon-climate feedbacks.
