Advancing soil C characterization using HRMS and NMR

Lead Institution

Environmental Molecular Sciences Laboratory

Principal Investigator

Nancy Hess

Soil organic matter consists of diverse and complex mixture of hundreds to thousands biological and metabolic products that are poorly characterized using current techniques. We seek to develop a…

Characterizing halogenated organic compounds in the terrestrial-aquatic continuum

Lead Institution

Pacific Northwest National Laboratory

Principal Investigator

Li-Jung Kuo

Halogenated organic compound(s) (HOCs) play prominent roles in atmospheric ozone chemistry, as environmental and human health contaminants (i.e. persistent organic pollutants), and have potential…

Rapid Access: Justifying a Proposed Alteration of Chemical Composition of Soil-leached Dissolved Organic Matter in Sub-Arctic Soils

Lead Institution

University of Florida

Principal Investigator

Thomas Bianchi

Project type

Limited Scope

Half of the global belowground organic carbon (OC) is stored in high-latitude frozen soils (permafrost). Temperatures have risen ~1 degrees C over the last 30 years (IPCC, 2013), which exposes…

The role of priming effects on the conversion of blue carbon to CO2 in the coastal zone

Lead Institution

University of Florida

Principal Investigator

Thomas Bianchi

Project type

FICUS Research

"Blue carbon," or organic carbon (OC) derived from and stored in coastal and marine environments, is recognized as an important OC sink within the global carbon cycle, particularly in…

The goal of this study is to elucidate physiological and genetic responses of eelgrass (Zostera marina L.) populations to the combined effects of ocean acidification and climate warming in order to…

What Happened to Terrestrial Organic Matter after an Extreme Weather Event? – An Investigation into Terrestrial Carbon Export after Hurricane Harvey 2017

Lead Institution

Texas A&M University

Principal Investigator

Yina Liu

Project type

Limited Scope

The fate of soil organic matter (SOM) along the terrestrial-aquatic continuum has been a topic of intense interests for decades, due to its importance to global carbon cycle and carbon sequestration…
