Research Interests
My research is focused on stabilizaiton of soil organic carbon and its relationship with environmental factors. I use molecular biomarkers, XANES spectroscopy and FT ICR MS to charactrie the source and chemcial composition of oranic carbon in variious physcial fractions of SOM across environemntal gradients, such as rainfall gradients and soil chronosequence.
