|
|
Jose D Fuentes
|
Fuentes and graduate students investigate forest
hydrocarbon production, hydrocarbon oxidation and aerosol formation,
ozone deposition, aerosol fluxes, and forest carbon updake.
|
Bill C Keene
|
Keene studies multiphase chemistry involving gases,
aerosols, cloud droplets, and precipitation and biogeochemical
interactions between the forest and the atmosphere.
|
Howie Epstein
|
Epstein studies the climate and
soil
controls on carbon and nitrogen cycling within the forest system.
|
Greg Okin
|
Okin employs remote sensing
capabilities to define the temporal foliage spectral characteristics in
order to quantify radiative transfer in the foret canopy.
|
Michael Mann
|
Mann leads studies to learn the
impacts of reforestation on both climate and the surface energy balance.
|
Paolo D'Odorico
|
D'Odorico pursues research to
define the hydrological controls on forest trace gas exchange.
|
Thomas L Smith
|
Smith studies both the
physiological attributes of the resident tree species and patterns of
litter decomposion within the flux footprint of the tower.
