Research interests
Current research efforts are focused on studying the cycling of energy and mass in agricultural systems using micrometeorological techniques. The goal of my research is to better understand the mechanisms controlling the exchanges of energy and mass between the land surface and the atmosphere. The objective of my research is to determine which agricultural practices are most efficient in utilizing natural resources to produce food and energy without negative impacts on soil and water resources. Current research interests include:
- Energy and mass balances from vegetation and soils
- Evapotranspiration and soil-plant water relations
- Transport in the soil-plant-atmosphere continuum
- Environmental instrumentation and sensor development
