Research Interests:

My research interests fall into two basic categories:

1) Biogeochemical Cycling
2) Soils chemistry

With regard to biogeochemical cycling, my interests include biogeochemical cycling in natural systems as well as the effects of regional and global phenomena (atmospheric pollution, increased carbon dioxide and climate change) as well as localized influences (such as harvesting, fire, fertilization) on biochemical cycling, primarily in forest ecosystems. 

With regard to the soils, my interests include soil-soil solution chemical interactions;  factors affecting organic carbon accumulation and loss; nitrogen, sulfur, phosphorus transformations.

Research topics:
Biogeochemical Cycles
