Research, Teaching, and Extension Work
My research interests are centered on understanding the microscale microbial and geochemical processes in soils, sediments and waters that impact terrestrial ecosystems. In particular, I am interested in how dynamic, non-equilibrium factors impact processes ranging from ecosystems and soil development to the availability and mobility of nutrients, colloids, trace elements and organic compounds. Work in my group involves lab and field experiments using a wide suite of analytical techniques.
