As a member of the Benthic Biogeochemistry Lab, I am interested in studying how changes in sediment biogeochemistry stemming from human activity alters benthic community composition and activity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I use a combination of observations and numerical modeling to gain insight into the biogeochemistry of seafloor environments on the Oregon continental margin and, more broadly, within the California Current Ecosystem. My masters thesis was focused on using an early diagenetic model and previously collected data to simulate and assess drivers of iron fluxes from Oregon continental margin sediments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
