Daniel Conley is a Professor at Lund University, affiliated with the Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences. His research focuses on biogeochemical cycles of nutrients, particularly silica, and their linkages between terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems. Conley studies the accumulation of amorphous silica in land soils, its deposition in plants, and its impact on lakes and diatoms, which delays export and affects weathering products in the landscape. He utilizes paleoecological techniques to analyze long-term monitoring data, aiming to manage aquatic ecosystems effectively. Conley collaborates with the Centre for Ecology and Evolution Microbial Model Systems at Linnaeus University to investigate the emergence and expansion of silica biomineralization in oceans influenced by evolutionary competition for dissolved silica. His interdisciplinary research incorporates biogeochemistry, geology, aquatic microbiology, and genomics. Conley’s expertise aligns with the UN Sustainable Development Goals, addressing crucial environmental changes impacting global climate and food webs.
