Soil processes are the foundation of healthy ecosystems
We take an interdisciplinary approach to understanding soil organic matter decomposition and persistence, production of greenhouse gases, and nutrient cycling and water pollution.
Research Themes
What is soil organic matter, why does it persist, and how should we manage it?
Greenhouse gas emissions and nutrient cycling in intensive agricultural landscapes
Plants, microbes, and minerals: consequences of rapid geochemical change
