STANFORD

The Ocean Biogeochemistry Group was founded in 1999 and is part of the Department of Earth System Science, Stanford Doerr School of Sustainability at Stanford University... The overall research theme of our group is the cycling of carbon and other materials within marine ecosystems and its exchange with the atmosphere. We combine laboratory studies and field research with data collected using satellite remote sensing techniques. These research results are synthesized within numerical models which gives us a better understanding of the underlying biogeochemical processes. We can then use these tools to simulate potential effects of for example iron fertilization, global change and stratospheric ozone depletion.
