Callie Ochs
Callie is interested in looking at how fungal foliar endophytes mediate leaf litter decomposition in aquatic and terrestrial environments. She is more generally interested in the microbial ecology of leaf-litter decomposition in streams. She will be using qSIP to...
Lauren Kemper
Lauren is interested in how changing disturbance regimes in boreal forests are affecting stand dynamics and carbon cycling. Her research focuses on how increasing fire frequency and severity affects post-fire regeneration and forest resilience in Interior...
Keanan Allen
Keanan is interested in soil carbon cycling and ecosystem modeling within changing environments. He is working on how microbial functions change under rising temperatures and how they impact soil carbon dynamics. This research aims to broaden our understanding of...
