Biography

Jason Kaye is a Professor in Ecosystem Science Management at the Institute of Energy and the Environment, where his research focuses on changing biogeochemical cycles in terrestrial ecosystems. He is particularly interested in the nitrogen cycle, studying both unmanaged ecosystems, where a lack of nitrogen limits plant growth, and managed ecosystems, where fertilizers help alleviate nitrogen limitations. His work addresses fascinating basic science questions about the interactions between plants, microorganisms, soils, and hydrology. Additionally, he examines pressing applied questions related to sustaining agricultural yields while reducing nitrogen pollution, which is crucial for feeding the growing human population without generating excessive water and greenhouse gas pollution.
