Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolJonathan Sanderman is a senior scientist and biogeochemist with nine years of focused experience studying how land-use and climate change reshape soil carbon and nutrient cycles. Based at Woodwell Climate Research Center after a senior research role at CSIRO, he investigates the carbon sink capacity of soils and coastal sediments and the potential for managing these sinks to mitigate climate change. His work blends field observations, process-based understanding, and implications for climate policy, reflecting a rare mix of deep mechanistic insight and applied conservation relevance. Jonathan holds a PhD in Environmental Science from UC Berkeley and a BSc from Brown, grounding his research in rigorous academic training. Based in Falmouth, Massachusetts, he combines coastal expertise with a systems perspective that links local sediment processes to global carbon budgets. Notably, he focuses not just on quantifying sinks but on exploring actionable strategies to enhance and manage them.
