During my previous post-doc at the University of Edinburgh. I worked on the SECO project – Resolving the current and future carbon dynamics of the dry tropics. My research combined plot data from multiple networks to estimate rates of woody biomass change across global tropical savannas and dry forests.
Currently, I am a Smithsonian Institution Post-doctoral Fellow, at the Smithsonian National Museum of Natural History in Washington DC. I work on the GEO-TREES project , where the primary aim is to provide ground data to validate satellite-derived biomass maps. My research uses forest plot data from across the tropics to understand patterns in tree community composition and forest structure, and how this affects ecosystem function, especially carbon dynamics.
