Hi Margaret, Thanks for your presentation - I really enjoyed it! I like what you said about molecular complexity in soil and how it might affect the dynamics of carbon turnover. I am curious what your thoughts on how we might describe or parameterize this complexity; which may be a conversation better suited for outside the panel. I'd certainly be keen to chat more than three minutes of response might allow :). How do you see us moving forward in meaningfully describing this molecular complexity? Are their tools that you think (ie NMR or fourier transform spectroscopy) are more useful than others? Are you suggesting fractionation schemes of soil organic carbon into pools? Again, really interesting to think on. Thanks for sharing! Cheers, Eron
