Description:Click here for zoom link\n\nMeeting ID: 944 0350 6302\nAbout th
 e Seminar:\nThe molecular structure of soil carbon pool is sensitive to gl
 obal environmental change\, and shifts in molecular structure influence pr
 ocesses that transport and transform that pool. The ecosystem metabolome 
 represents an integrated picture of the collective features of the organic
  matter pool that can be assessed using mass spectrometry or NMR-based pla
 tforms. Describing the molecular features of the organic matter pool\, fro
 m quantitative measures of individual components to qualitatively understa
 nding patterns in oxidative state and chemical diversity can lead to predi
 ctive understanding of how an ecosystem functions and responds to environm
 ental factors. Using a molecular ecology approach\, I’ll describe the bi
 oavailability and molecular characteristics of organic matter in glacial a
 nd managed sub-alpine forest ecosystems\, along with analytical considera
 tions and constraints of this approach. 4:00 pm
