My research research aims to understand interactions between microbes and their environment in order to solve anthropogenic issues. My team's research focuses primarily on understanding microbial impacts on Cold War Biogeochemistry (uranium and chlorinated solvent contamination); energy production (either by mitigating degradation of contaminants (from hydraulic fracturing or oil spills) or by enhancing natural gas production); and carbon cycling.

I am a biogeochemist studying how material and chemical elements are cycled through marine and coastal ecosystems. My research focuses on the carbon cycle in systems such as coral reefs, mangroves, seagrass beds, and calcium carbonate sediments. I am interested in the role that these ecosystems play in the global carbon cycle and how they will be affected by climate change. Most of my work involves making seawater chemistry measurements in the field using state-of-the-art technology, with a focus on carbon dioxide, methane, total alkalinity, oxygen, and submarine groundwater discharge. By measuring these parameters we can get a better understanding of where and how carbon moves between the land and sea.

My interests are centered on understanding the future of the terrestrial carbon sink, by examining the impacts of climate variability and long-term change on terrestrial ecosystem function and land surface dynamics. My work combines large ecological data sets (e.g., eddy-covariance, remote sensing), models of ecosystem state and function, and data assimilation/mining tools, with results from in-situ field studies and experiments, to gain a mechanistic understanding of key physical and biological processes. I enjoy using methods from diverse disciplines, including ecophysiology and biogeochemistry, micrometeorology, atmospheric science, mathematics, statistics and high-performance computing, and collaborating across fields to do so.

My research goals are to understand the evolutionary biology and adaptive ecology of benthic foraminifera and their relation to the geologic history of the Earth. For this purpose, I use both geological/paleontological and biological/ecological approaches. In particular, I have actively introduced experimental methods into the field of foraminiferal research. Up to the present time, I have published more than 280 papers and 25 books. The Palaeontological Society of Japan awarded me the Yokoyama Medal in 2010 and the Cushman Foundation for Foraminiferal Research selected me for the 2016 Joseph A. Cushman Award in recognition of this scientific output. In 2011, a huge earthquake and associated tsunamis struck northern Japan and inflicted great damage to local communities. I have established a research project with colleagues to monitor the recovery processes of marine ecosystems impacted by these events. Our results will contribute to the scientific community, but should also help coastal fisheries and economies to recover from this disaster. This is an active example of “Science for Society”. Geosciences should provide not only basic knowledge, but also contribute to the sustaining of stable human lives on Earth.

Our group in Stanford's Department of Earth System Science, led by Prof. Alexandra Konings, studies how ecosystems and the carbon cycle respond to variations in water availability at large scales, and how ecosystems will change under future climate. Our research questions principally focus on plant hydraulics, water-carbon coupling in the tropics, and the role of spatial variability in plant traits. In order to answers these questions, we primarily use remote sensing data analysis and model development. In particular, we often use new microwave measurements of vegetation water content. We believe that a deep understanding of remote sensing background helps us do better science and therefore also work on developing new remote sensing datasets and their validation.

My research focuses on the detailed understanding of greenhouse gas (GHG) exchange in ecosystems worldwide, including wetlands, woodlands, forests, savannas, grasslands and livestock systems. By applying micrometeorological methods such as the eddy covariance technique I aim to define major meteorological as well as biological factors influencing ecosystem GHG exchange and link the biogeochemical cycles of carbon, nitrogen and water. Besides studying the ecosystem scale, I am further interested in exchange of GHGs at the process level (leafs, soils and animals using GHG chambers) and larger scales (regional to global) using modeling (empirical, semi-empirical and process-based biogeochemical models) and remote sensing approaches, while linking environmental aspects to productivity. Beyond the quantification of GHG exchange I am driven by a simple question: “How do ecosystems function now and how will they function in the future?” ​ In addition to fundamental research I am motivated to educate undergraduate and graduate students in environmental sciences but also to apply recent research findings in the real world e.g. by doing environmental assessments of agricultural production systems in developing countries as currently done as head of the Mazingira Centre.
