About Me
After many years in academia, I am currently a research scientist with Pioneer Hi-Bred in Woodland, CA. In addition to my work with Pioneer, I continue to pursue the development of remote sensing methods for quantifying biosphere-atmosphere interactions, and related interests in plant physiological ecology and biometeorology. I am particularly interested in the role of vegetation in global carbon and water cycles, interactions and feedbacks between ecosystem function, weather, and climate, and the impacts of biodiversty and land use. This work often requires an interdisciplinary approach involving physiology, meteorology, remote sensing, and modeling to quantify CO2 and water vapor fluxes between plants, soils and the atmosphere at leaf to global scales.
