Water loss is closely coupled to carbon gain by plants and ecosystems. Nathan studies the physiological mechanisms and processes by which plants and ecosystems regulate water loss and carbon gain and how such processes may be altered under global environmental change.
Nathan co-chaired the IOC’s Urban Seminar Series program for the 2014-2015 Academic Year along with Japonica Brown-Saracino.
