Laboratory Research Objectives

Our research focuses on environmental biogeochemistry and physiology, with the objective of constraining the mechanisms governing carbon cycling and climate.  Current research interests include:

1. Ocean carbon cycling and productivity

2. Carbon acquisition mechanisms in marine phytoplankton and implications for climate change and paleo-CO₂ reconstruction

3. Global carbon cycle and ocean-atmosphere fluxes

Our scientific approach is interdisciplinary, integrating field observations, laboratory experiments, modeling and theory. For more details see some of our current projects and publications. Prospective students and postdoctoral fellows, contact us for available positions.
