Current Research: |
| Stand-level carbon cycling in loblolly pine in response to changes in nutrient and moisture availability, focusing on physiological mechanisms. Characterization of growth, carbon exchange and carbon allocation of loblolly pine under varied nutrient and atmospheric CO2, understanding the relationship between tissue carbohydrate dynamics and terminal shoot growth. |
