About our research
Our research spans the globe and attempts to combine laboratory based manipulations with global datasets to help define geochemical cycles. We loosely define our work into three categories global, local, and extreme. Our global scale research involves a modeling intensive approach to describing global biogeochemical cycles. Meanwhile local implies regional or smaller scale work, which largely concentrates on the microbial ecology of salt marsh and freshwater wetland ecosystems. In extreme environments we primarily explore individual site(s) that typify some characteristic condition (e.g. hydrothermal sediments for high temperatures and brines for salty environments).
