My research in the Everglades about flocculent organic matter is important because it gives us insight about carbon storage and fluxes in subtropical wetlands, which is the broader implication. My research specifically focused on rates of metabolism (primary productivity and respiration) and biogeochemical variables (carbon, nitrogen, phosphorus and chlorophyll-a). #biologist #researchscientist #biology #ecology #stem
