About
I am a mixture of atmospheric scientist and ecologist working in the broad arena of "global change". In particular, I am interested in quantification and characterization of the global carbon cycle with emphasis on exchanges of CO2 with the terrestrial biosphere and the fossil fuel sources of CO2 to the atmosphere. The future evolution and mechanistic underpinnings of the global carbon cycle are fundamental to climate change research and decision-making on climate change mitigation and adaptation. In addition to my scientific research, I have also continued work in the area of climate change policy through research on those aspects of domestic and international policy that relate to the carbon cycle.
ALWAYS LOOKING FOR GRADUATE STUDENTS AND POSTDOCS
My group has ongoing need for those with background in tracer transport modeling (forward, inverse), energy supply/demand analysis, emissions policy analysis!
I have a specific postdoctoral openings at the moment
1) energy/CO2 emissions research
2) global fossil fuel CO2 emissions
Also, an opening for an IT administrator (50% time max)
