Personal profile
About
Ecosystem processes and biogeochemistry; the use of metrics of ecosystem function and seasonal dynamics for evaluation of human impacts and restoration in aquatic ecosystems. Currently I am conducting research projects related to the influence of restoration on N cycling in eutrophic coastal habitats in NYC, measuring the role of freshwater bivalves on N transformations, and analyses of biofilm activity on anthropogenic litter and microplastic in aquatic ecosystems.
