Neal Scott's Full Profile 

Neal Scott is an Associate Professor in the Department of Geography and Planning at Queen's University. His research program strives to increase our understanding of the processes of carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) cycling in terrestrial ecosystems, and how human-induced disturbances influence these processes. He leads the Facility for Biogeochemical Research on Environmental Change and the Cryosphere (FaBRECC), where he and his students are working to improve understanding of critical processes in these biogeochemical cycles, how they are being altered by human activity, and how terrestrial ecosystems might be more effectively managed to help mitigate human impacts while still providing critical ecosystem services. He will will contribute expertise in biogeochemistry (processes and modelling), including development of ecosystem health indicators.

Neal is a co-applicant on the LEADERS CREATE Program.
