Speaker: Dr. Weixin Cheng is a professor in the Environmental Studies Department at UC Santa Cruz.
His research spans from root-soil interactions to the effects of global change factors (e.g., elevated CO2, nitrogen deposition, and global warming) on belowground processes, and to global patterns of social-ecological entanglement (e.g., biospheric carrying capacity and ecological foundation of human societies). His current research projects are taking advantage of recently developed methods such as stable isotope tracing/labeling and rhizosphere imaging.
