Erin D. Lane

Ph.D. Candidate - Hicks Pries Lab

I work for the USDA Forest Service Northern Research Station. I came to Dartmouth to work with brilliant soil scientists and is studying soil carbon in the context of nature-based climate solutions. My background is in fire ecology, forest management and adapting agricultural operations to climate change. I am an author of the National Climate Assessment (NCA4 and upcoming NCA5).
