Paul Brooks' research interests focus on both basic and applied questions of ecosystem structure and function, especially with respect to how changes in terrestrial ecosystems affect surface water quality. Recent research projects have examined the effects of anthropogenic N and S deposition on high-elevation catchments in Colorado, climate change and precipitation patterns in seasonally snow-covered systems, the link between ozone loss, UV exposure and amphibian decline, trace gas fluxes from arctic ecosystems, and land use change on the recycling of soil carbon and nutrients.
