Hello, I am Rounak, a fourth-year Ph.D. candidate at the University of Tennessee Knoxville. My dissertation research focuses on unraveling subsoil C-stabilization mechanisms within highly managed terrestrial ecosystems. I utilize a novel approach of stable isotope enrichment in microbial nucleic acids to understand the mechanistic processes behind subsoil C storage by growing deep-rooted plants. I would be delighted to connect and discuss the science underlying subsoil carbon storage or we can chat about spicy foods, soccer, and soulful songs. You can reach me at rpatra@vols.utk.edu or through other social media platforms!
