Simone Alin
Coastal Carbon Dynamics
PhD 2001 Geosciences, University of Arizona
Research Interests:
My research revolves around understanding the role that marine and freshwater
ecosystems play in the global carbon cycle. I am particularly interested
in how carbon cycle processes and carbon fluxes associated with aquatic
ecosystems are affected by climate change and other anthropogenic influences.
The major focus of my work is currently on observing CO2 dynamics in coastal
ecosystems, although I have also worked on carbon cycling topics in large rivers
and lakes, ranging from the tropics to high latitudes. Specific areas
of interest include: linkages between terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems,
air-water gas exchange, organic carbon sequestration, isotopes as tracers
of carbon sources, and metabolic balance of ecosystems.
