Biology dominates seasonal carbon uptake at high latitudes along the West Antarctic Peninsula
I am an Associate Scientist and Principal Investigator of the Biogeochemical Modeling Laboratory at the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution. My lab aims to better understand and quantify the impacts and feedbacks of marine microbial and biogeochemical dynamics on Earth's climate system. We develop and apply mechanistic biogeochemical models of varying complexity, in conjunction with observational analyses, data-driven approaches, and emerging tools in AI/ML. Current research topics in my lab include quantifying microbial control of the ocean’s biological carbon pump, assessing biogeochemical feedbacks on air-sea CO2 fluxes, investigating biophysical interactions in polar seas, and modeling the risks and efficacy of ocean Carbon Dioxide Removal (CDR) methods.
