About

Dr. Daniela Cusack is an Associate Professor at Colorado State University in the United States. Her research focuses on tropical root characteristics, biogeochemical responses in tropical forests, and the interactions between soil microorganisms and environmental factors. Recent publications include studies on the effects of experimental warming on carbon contributions in lowland tropical forests and the implications of root trait dynamics for nutrient and water acquisition.
