Soil ecology, soil microbial diversity, soil fertility, agriculture, agroecology

Profile Summary

My study focuses on the role of soil microbial communities in carbon sequestration, nutrient cycling, and soil structure development and maintenance. I'm particularly interested in the effects of conventional versus conservation agriculture methods on microbial communities and the ecological services they provide, such as till/no-till, cover cropping, and the usage of composts and manures.
