Andrew Mehring
University of Louisville
Assistant Professor of Ecosystem Ecology, Department of Biology
Dr. Mehring studies greenhouse gas emissions and uptake in natural, agricultural, and urban ecosystems using flux chambers and eddy covariance, in an effort to maximize the potential of these systems to store carbon. He also conducts related research on organic matter and nutrient cycling in aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems, the effects of urban land use on aquatic and terrestrial invertebrate communities, and the use of natural treatment systems (i.e., raingardens, biofilters, constructed wetlands) to restore the health of urban soils and aquatic ecosystems.
Research Areas
greenhouse gas flux measurements, limnology, biogeochemistry, aquatic entomology, ecosystem ecology
Collaborative Interests
department seminars, graduate committees, grant collaborations, guest lectures, public lectures, publications, research collaborations, student advising
