Research Interests
We explore how diversification and healthy soil ecosystems can help agriculture meet its sustainability and resilience goals. We integrate concepts and methodologies from various disciplines to measure outcomes of ecological intensification strategies and linkages between diversification, soil health and ecological resilience. We also study plant-microbe interactions in the rhizosphere and the ecological functions central to crop production in agroecological systems.

UC Davis, Berkeley Lab Team up to Advance Green Agriculture
Three University of California, Davis, Faculty Fellows have been awarded $25,000 each to spearhead cross-campus research projects with Berkeley Lab scientists in the field of agricultural decarbonization. With agricultural activities contributing over 10% of the United States’ total greenhouse gas emissions, the sector is a prime target for lowering emissions and addressing the climate crisis. The teams will explore innovative methods to remove and store excess carbon dioxide from the atmosphere—a practice known as carbon sequestration—and minimize energy consumption in crop production.
