About me
I am a professor in Ecohydrology, with research interests spanning soil-vegetation-atmosphere interactions, hydro-climatic impacts on carbon and nutrient cycling, sustainable resource use and management, and ecological stoichiometry. My approach is based on process-based, conceptual, and stochastic models of water, carbon, and nutrient fluxes, which are tested using local and global datasets.
