Projects


Regenerative Agriculture Microbiomes


Research findings of this work will inform us on how regenerative agriculture influences soil conditions and the microbial community that promotes a healthy soil by showing how similar they are to “baseline” soil conditions.




Coffee Cultivation Intensification, Microbiomes, & Quality


The goal of this work is to examine how coffee cultivation Intensification influences the plant-associated microbiomes in coffee farms in Central & Latin America.




Composts & Microbes


The goal of this project is to understand the effectiveness of compost applications across a range of dry rangeland conditions throughout New Mexico.




Urbanization & Soil Microbiomes


The aim of this project was to explore the impacts of urbanization and associated anthropogenic land-use change on soil microbial communities and soil health factors along a urban-to-rural gradient in the NYC area.
