Research interests

My research focuses on ecosystem carbon dynamics in the humid tropics. In my current and recent research, I have focused on how climate change and landuse changes are affecting belowground carbon stocks and trace gas emissions from soils. I am currently working within the REDD ALERT project as a post-doctoral fellow. More information of the REDD ALERT project can be found here.
