I'm super excited to mentor undergraduate student's through the SRPE at Harvard Forest this summer! Use the links below to learn more about the REU program and our projects!
If you are interested in roots, trees, and/or greenhouse gas fluxes in forests, come work with us!
2025 SRPE:
Symposium Booklet -> Information, project abstracts, and more!
Mentee Projects:
Adriana Gonzalez-Alvarez (University of Puerto Rico Rio Piedras)
Digging for more: Exploring dominant temperate forest tree species root traits along a forest structural gradient
Liam Joy (Harvard University)
Differences in specific biomass distribution between standing stock and ingrowth soil cores across a temperate forest edge
Timothy Wiley (Stanford University)
Exhaling edges: Moisture-temperature dynamics and their impact on soil CO2 respiration across temperate forests
If you find our work interesting or want to get involved with any of our research interests, feel free to reach out!
I've had the pleasure of working with undergraduate students related to root system dynamics after disturbance, intra-specific root trait and morphological plasticity across environmental gradients, fire regimes and fuel loading, and more!
