RESEARCH INTERESTS Global carbon cycles and ecosystem ecology Biogeochemical cycling of carbon and water in terrestrial ecosystems Canopy turbulent transport and biosphere-atmosphere interactions PUBLICATIONS Poster Measurements of CO2 concentration, carbon and oxygen isotopes My research interests focus on carbon, water and energy cycles in natural and managed ecosystems using a combination of isotopic and micrometeorological approach to study land-atmosphere interactions. Currently, I am working on a long-term monitoring project measuring carbon and oxygen isotope ratios of atmospheric CO2 in a number of AmeriFlux sites. I am also working on understanding factors controlling the oxygen and hydrogen isotope ratios of water vapor fluxes in terrestrial ecosystems. More details about my research can be found here.
