I graduated from Montana State University with a B.S. in Land Resources and Environmental Science (soil science option) in 2000 and recently earned my M.S. in Land Resources and Environmental Science also from MSU. As a Research Associate working primarily with the CASMGS project, my main responsibilities are 1) to serve as the primary contact for the six farmer cooperators involved with CASMGS in north central Montana and 2) to measure soil organic carbon and crop biomass production at each of the CASMGS research sites. In addition to having a great interest in the interactions of soil properties and cropping systems on soil carbon dynamics, I am also interested in the potential use of satellite imagery to further support a carbon trading market. In conjunction with the CASMGS project, I am also looking into the potential use of satellite imagery for documenting agricultural management practices and estimating input variables for the Century model.
