Debjani Sihi was invited to serve as a panelist for Academy Colloquium: Microbes and Climate Change – Science, People, & Impacts, American Academy of Microbiology, American Society of Microbiology, Nov 5, 2021.
We are thrilled to receive funding from the Department of Energy (DOE)’s Environmental System Science Program. We will use a ModEx (modeling-experimental) approach to predict greenhouse gas emissions from Terrestrial-Aquatic Interfaces (TAIs) using a modeling framework that couples redox reaction network model with a probability distribution function of soil microsites.
We are happy to announce that we received funding from the National Science Foundation(NSF)’s Macrosystem Biology and NEON-Enabled Science program. We will upscale soil organic carbon measurements at the continental scale by understanding emergent ecosystem properties and spatial representativeness analysis.
We are excited to share that our lab received funding from Valent Biosciences/Valent U.S.A. to evaluate carbon sequestration in agricultural soils using innovative technologies and methods (LINK TO PROJECT PAGE).
Our article Rapid and inexpensive assessment of soil total iron using Nix Pro color sensor is featured in CSA News: Inexpensive Color Sensor Quantifies Soil Total Iron (https://acsess.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/csan.20683)
Our work on modeling methane emissions from wet tropical forest soils was highlighted on the Department of Energy’s Environmental System Science Program. Read the research highlight here (https://ess.science.energy.gov/highlight/predicting-methane-dynamics-during-drought-recovery/).
