I am a soil scientist with a professional interest in soil structural formation. More specifically, how biotic, and abiotic factors influence soil aggregation. Soil is a fascinating natural system with a high complexity that often requires shaping or even building up new methods. While studying at the Technical University of Munich, I worked on the development of a correlative analysis that allows simultaneous investigation of soil chemical components and their relation to soil structural heterogeneity. As a postdoctoral researcher, I am eager to investigate how novel solutions in agricultural settings, such as enhanced mineral weathering, influence soil structure and mechanisms in soil aggregation, which ultimately defines the ability to stabilize soil organic carbon.
