research aims to advance our understanding of soil food webs and organic matter in the context of fire by combining synthesis, experimental, and observational approaches. In this seminar, I will share results from three key studies: (1) a global meta-analysis
investigating how fire affects the biomass, abundance, and diversity of soil organisms, (2) a long-term field study investigating how fire frequency alters soil food web structure, function, and stability, and (3) a continental-scale study that examines the
distribution and drivers of fire-derived carbon in topsoils across Europe. Taken together, these studies illustrate that changing fire regimes will have important implications for soil communities, soil organic matter, and ecosystem processes</span><br>

scientist, writer, educator, speaker, and artist who is on a mission to make soil a household name. As an Assistant Professor of Soil Science and Restoration Ecology at Cal Poly, San Luis Obispo, Yamina shares her enthusiasm for soil science and ecology with
undergraduate students while studying the many ways that soil organisms control how soils form and function. Yamina holds a B.S. in Environmental Management and Protection from Cal Poly, San Luis Obispo and a Ph.D. in Ecology from Colorado State University.
She worked as a Postdoctoral Research Associate at Texas A&M University prior to returning to Cal Poly in 2019. When she’s not doing science, you can find Yamina running, watercolor painting, and spending time with her loved ones in the desert.</span><br>
