His research interests include global ecosystem processes [3] [4], climate change solutions[5] , and agricultural sustainability [6]. He was appointed dean in October 2020. His lab created a new benchmarking tool to calculate nitrogen's substantial impact on the global climate system used by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change[7]. A 2018 paper found that 25% of the nitrogen available to plants comes from rock weathering [8].
