Research

Research in the Barrett Lab addresses the influences of soils, climate variability, hydrology and biodiversity on biogeochemical cycling from the scale of microorganisms to regional landscapes. Topics that I am interested in are:

• Transformation and transport of carbon, nitrogen and phosphorus across terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems.
• Controls over spatial distribution of soil biota
• Response of soil biota to climate variability
• Soil community composition and ecosystem functioning
• Carbon sequestration in managed ecosystems
