Dr. Richard Conant is a Scientist at the Natural Resource Ecology Laboratory at Colorado State University, Fort Collins, Colorado. His research interests include basic soil carbon dynamics and the impacts of land use/management change on soil carbon, primarily in grasslands and agroecosystems. Among his projects at NREL, Richard was involved in compiling land areas, land use, and carbon sequestration potentials for the recently published SBSTA report completed by the IPCC. Prior to joining NREL in 1998, he was a post-doctoral Research Associate in the Department of Microbiology and a Lecturer in the Department of Plant Biology at Arizona State University, from which he received his Ph.D. in 1997. Dr. Conant is a member of the Soil Science Society of America, the American Geophysical Union, and is the Rocky Mountain Chapter Secretary for the Ecological Society of America.
