Elsa Abs

Elsa is an ECS member of the Biogeosciences Division. They are a Marie Curie postdoctoral fellow hosted between the University of California Irvine in the US and the Laboratory of Climate and Environmental Sciences (LSCE) in Paris-Saclay France. They use mathematical models at different scales to figure out how climate impacts soil microbes and how microbial adaptation in response modify climate.

Five questions to our new Biogeoscience Early Career Scientist Representatives

There have been some changes in our division lately! The most important one is the election of our two new ECS Representatives: Elsa Abs and Sílvia Poblador! Sílvia and Elsa will be responsible for all things early career in the BG Division during the 2024 – 2026 term.  We took the opportunity to ask them some questions about their scientific journeys and their plans for the upcoming year.

Spatial and temporal changes in environmental conditions over billions of years have driven the evolution of diverse microbial, fungal and plant species that have shaped the ecosystems, atmosphere and climate of our Earth system. Understanding the function and resilience of organisms and our biomes in response to climatic change and their complex feedbacks requires knowledge of its component parts ...[Read More]
