I work in Woodwell Climate’s Arctic, Carbon, and Tropics programs. My primary research focus is on the impacts of climate change on greenhouse gas exchange in forest and wetland ecosystems.
I have developed methodologies for continuous measurement of greenhouse gas fluxes, as well as data quality protocols, and taught those techniques to other scientists and students.
My current research projects include:
- investigating the biophysical drivers of the methane source-sink transition in Northern Forests;
- developing low cost autonomous carbon dioxide and methane flux measurements systems for aquatic environments;
- assessing whether forest harvesting practices can contribute to natural climate solutions while maintaining economic viability in Maine.
I obtained my B.Sc. at York University in Toronto and M.Sc. at McGill in Montreal.
