Keita Decarlo
Keita received his PhD in 2019, studying how soil cracking and fracture networks influence carbon flux dynamics in dryland vertisols.
Biography
Keita joined the Caylor Lab in Fall 2013 after completing his studies at Boston University. His prior research involved the digital image processing of desiccation crack networks in clay to understand its physicochemical properties. In his work at Princeton, he analyzed soil phenomena and investigated their consequences on larger-scale hydrological processes in dryland environments.
