Siān Mooney is an assistant professor in the Department of Agricultural and Applied Economics at the University of Wyoming. Her research interests related to this CASMGS project include the design of efficient policies, contracts and measurement and monitoring protocols for carbon sequestration in agricultural soils. In addition, she is examining the economics of carbon sequestration in agroforestry projects as well as their potential co-benefits. Siān has been appointed as a member of the Wyoming Governor’s Carbon Sequestration Advisory Committee and has also served the Montana Governor’s Carbon Sequestration group. She has published several papers in the area of climate change and greenhouse gas mitigation in addition to presentations to professional societies, students and national governments. Prior to joining the faculty at the University of Wyoming Siān was an assistant research professor at Montana State University. She received her Ph.D. in 1998 from Oregon State University.

CASMGS Research
"There are many unresolved issues related to carbon sequestration, not least policy design, soil carbon measurement protocols and uncertainty regarding which management practices will be most economically efficient at sequestering carbon. I will be working on several of these questions. With Perry Miller, I will examine the economics of switching from conventional to reduced tillage to sequester additional soil C. With John Antle and Susan Capalbo, I will be designing and exploring the economic feasibility of a range of measurement schemes for soil C as well as contract design. With several other CASMGS collaborators at MSU, and other institutions, I will be examining the potential role that agroforestry practices can play in sequestering soil C as well as trying to quantify their additional co-benefits."
