Dean's Advisory Board In 2017, Dean Greene assembled the Dean's Advisory Board to replace our former External Advisory Committee. This group will work alongside our two active alumni committees with a specific focus on assisting the dean with strategic planning and networking across disciplines to help support private giving to the Warnell School. We thank all of these accomplished and talented people for their longstanding support of our program and their willingness to serve the school in this vitally important role.

Aquatic Toxiciology Lab Activities in the Aquatic Toxicology lab primarily involve determination of the effects of environmental pollutants on aquatic organisms such as fish and freshwater mussels. We are also interested in investigating the early life history of freshwater mussels, particularly the obligate parasitic larval stage which must attach to a suitable host fish for transformation to the juvenile stage. For culture of aquatic organisms the wet lab is equipped with temperature controlled systems including a stand-alone fish keeping system with 30 aquaria, a Living Stream, and numerous aquaria for contaminant exposures. The lab has a multifunction plate reader for performing ELISAs and other colorimetric assays, extraction and homogenization equipment for biological and environmental samples, a stereo microscope with image analysis software, incubators, centrifuges, balances, a -80C freezer, an ultrapure water system and general lab equipment for collecting processing samples.

Dr. Aubrey Forest Ecophysiology Lab Our lab is interested in understanding how biotic and abiotic factors influence the physiology of trees and how the physiological mechanisms of trees regulate ecosystem processes. Our main research themes are focused on water, carbon, and nitrogen cycling in forest ecosystems. Within these research themes, we explore both basic and applied questions. Indeed, much of our research is related to applied bioenergy production and sustainability questions, but we are keen to leverage the simplified ecological framework afforded by these systems to probe basic ecological and physiological processes. We are particularly interested in belowground processes and interactions between above- and belowground processes.
