Louis-Pierre Comeau is a Canadian scientist in landscape and soil carbon. He is a researcher for the Federal Government of Canada at Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada.[2][3]
Education
Comeau received his B.Sc. in Biology from the National Autonomous University of Mexico,[4] and his M.Sc. in Soil Science from the University of Saskatchewan, followed by his Ph.D. in Soil Science from the University of Aberdeen, UK and his postdoctoral fellowship from the Chinese University of Hong Kong.[5][6]
Research and career
Comeau led a research program that developed an inexpensive and standardized lab respiration assessment method that simulates weather conditions and allows efflux estimations based on soil surface area.[7] He studies the impact of land-uses on carbon balances and soil organic matter in different ecosystems.[8][3][9] He also has been involved in research on soil health in agricultural fields.[10][7]
Comeau started his working career as a research assistant at the CGAIR Center for International Forestry Research.[11] After that, he entered as a COOP student at the Agriculture and Agri-Food research centers and collections (AAFC), Saskatoon Research and Development Centre. He is currently a research scientist at the AAFC Fredericton Research Development Center. He is also an eastern councillor of the Canadian Soil Science Society.[12]
Awards and recognition
Comeau received the Canadian Soil Science Society Pedology Award in 2018.[1][13]
