I am interested in many aspects of land surface modelling. I develop and use the Canadian Land Surface Scheme Including Biogeochemical Cycles (CLASSIC) model in my research. My present focus is on:

• High latitude processes (permafrost, vegetation)
• Simulating the Canadian carbon cycle
  • Elyn Humphreys and I co-lead the NSERC Alliance Project COHERENT-C (Canadian Optimized High-resolution Representation of the Terrestrial Carbon Cycle). COHERENT-C's main objective of this project is to rapidly advance Canada's skill at representing and predicting Canada's terrestrial carbon cycle as climate, disturbances, and atmospheric greenhouse gas concentrations evolve. 
• Wetland methane
• Peatlands
