My research focuses on soil and plant nutrient cycling, atmospheric greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, and soil carbon sequestration in response to crop, nutrient, and water management. I also explore the impact of land use transformation on soil properties, chemical processes, atmospheric emissions, and water quality. Methodologically, my approach involves both qualitative and quantitative data analysis, employing interdisciplinary methods. Currently, I am collaborating with the University of Guelph Canada, and Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada on a European Union-funded project (AgPro4CSA-895209) under Horizon 2020 Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions (MSCA). My research aims to develop mitigation strategies for crop production by deeply understanding the mechanisms involved in GHG production and emission from agricultural soils, and by simulating the long-term impacts of management practices on GHG mitigation and soil C sequestration. I utilize various technologies for GHG flux measurements, including static chambers, automatic chambers, and the micrometeorological flux gradient method. I have operated advanced equipment for GHG quantification, such as LICOR, PICARRO, LGR, Aeris, and tunable diode laser trace gas analyzers. Additionally, I have experience using stable isotopes, planar optode sensors, microbial DNA and RNA analysis, and biogeochemical models (e.g., DNDC, Daisy).
Teaching-wise, I cover courses such as Climate Smart Soils, Tropical Crop Production, and Advanced Crop Production, among others, and engage in supervising Bachelor's, Master's, and co-supervising PhD projects.
