Neal Blair is a Professor in the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering and Earth and Planetary Sciences at Northwestern University. His research focuses on the behavior of carbon at Earth's surface, particularly the pathways of organic carbon decomposition and sequestration mediated by biological and physical processes in soils and sediments. He has developed an integrated conceptual model that describes the transformations of organic carbon as it moves through landscapes to the seafloor, and he examines the human impacts on the lateral portion of the carbon cycle. Blair's work is characterized by a strong commitment to understanding and addressing environmental challenges through innovative research and collaborative efforts. His selected publications include significant contributions to the understanding of fluvial particulate organic carbon dynamics, landscape management impacts, and the analysis of organic carbon sources in Midwestern agricultural watersheds.
