Education:
Ph.D. Ecology - University of California, Davis (2007)
M.S. Ecology - Inha University, Korea (2001)
B.S. Biology - Inha University, Korea (1999)

Research Interests:
  • Predicting the effects of climate change on crop productivity in the Central Valley using the Daycent model.
  • Study of the spatial and temporal variability of soil C sequestration and greenhouse gas emissions under standard versus minimum tillage.
  • Evaluation of a method for a significance test of the difference between two means of spatially correlated data in unreplicated large scale field studies using field monitor and soil C data.
  • Study of spatial characterization of biological N2 fixation in field-grown chickpea at different scales.
  • Development of new methods to control bias in measured differences in soil C storage under different management systems.

Areas of research interests:
As a Postdoctoral Scholar, I will be expected to: 1) finalize the analyses and writing the manuscripts for submission to international peer-reviewed journals on spatial and temporal soil controls on yield, biological nitrogen fixation, soil C pools and greenhouse gas emissions in a California agricultural system under standard and minimum tillage, 2) determine the optimal method to assess C stocks in ecosystems under different management practices, and 3) determine the ecosystem carbon balance in two California agricultural systems under standard versus minimum tillage by compiling, analyzing, and summarizing all available data on C fluxes and stocks in the two systems.
