I work in the Rich Lab at the University of Arizona, focused on the Critical Zone Observatory project for the Catalina-Jemez site. I am helping to measure microbial biomass, characterize the community composition, etc of soils from a burned site in the Jemez Mountains in New Mexico. In addition I am helping with analysis of microbial communities in lake sediment from a thawing permafrost site in Abisko, Sweden.
