While most ecosystem scientists measure the exchange of carbon dioxide between the land surface and the atmosphere vertically, Emily Romano is measuring the sideways flow of carbon. A second year PhD student in Ted Schuur’s lab at Ecoss, she is researching how much...
Dr. Plaza is broadly interested in the responses of soil organic matter to climate change in permafrost ecosystems, their impact on ecosystem functioning, and feedback to global warming. Plaza’s research at NAU is particularly focused on the mechanisms and...
Liu’s main research interests include soil microbial ecology, biogeochemistry (carbon and nitrogen cycling) and global climate change. Currently he is working on soil microbial diversity and it affect C cycling in response to substrate (sugar, plant litter or other...
Ebert’s academic background is in analytical chemistry, primarily performing atomic spectroscopy by inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry. He has performed isotopic analyses for nuclear science, environmental science, and forensics. This experience has...
