I am interested in the processes that drive forest carbon (C) cycling and how these drivers change with disturbance and anthropogenic modification. I study how forest structure influences availability and usage of growth-limiting resources and the effects on forest C storage and biogeochemical cycling. I address these questions using methods that bridge multiple spatial scales, from leaf-level ecophysiology to landscape-level experiments to remote sensing and modeling of vegetation dynamics across the landscape of natural and engineered ecosystems.<\/p>\n\n                    <\/div>\n                \n                            <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n        <div class=\"image\">\n                            <img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/dev.www.purdue.edu\/fnr\/sites\/hardiman\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2025\/07\/Bradysprofilepic.jpg\"\/>\n                    <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n\n\n<section  class=\"purdue-home-link-cards \">\n\n    <div class=\"section has-none-background\">\n                    <div class=\"container header-wrap\">\n                <div class=\"columns is-mulitline align-bottom\">\n                    <div class=\"column\">\n                                                    <div class=\"tagged-header-container  tagged-header-container--gold\">\n                                <h2 class=\"tagged-header tagged-header--gold\">Current Projects<\/h2>\n                            <\/div>\n                                            <\/div>\n                    <div class=\"column is-narrow mobile-hidden\">\n                                            <\/div>\n                <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n        \n        <div class=\"container\">\n                                <div class=\"purdue-home-link-cards__cards\">\n                        <div class=\"columns is-multiline\">\n                                                            <div class=\"column is-4-desktop is-half-tablet\">\n                                    <article class=\"purdue-home-cta-card has-content-bottom\" data-link=\"https:\/\/dev.www.purdue.edu\/fnr\/sites\/hardiman\/mechanisms-of-long-term-resilience-of-forest-carbon-storage-ongoing\/\" data-target=\"_blank\"><div class=\"card-image\"><figure class=\"image is-16by9\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/dev.www.purdue.edu\/fnr\/sites\/hardiman\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2025\/07\/hardimanslideshow10.jpg\"\/><\/figure><\/div><div class=\"flex-container flex-container--align-bottom\"><p><a class=\"purdue-home-cta-grid__card-title \" href=\"https:\/\/dev.www.purdue.edu\/fnr\/sites\/hardiman\/mechanisms-of-long-term-resilience-of-forest-carbon-storage-ongoing\/\" target=_blank aria-label=\"Learn More (Opens in a new tab)\">Mechanisms of Long-term Resilience of Forest Carbon Storage (Ongoing)<\/a><\/p><\/div><\/article>                                <\/div>\n                                                            <div class=\"column is-4-desktop is-half-tablet\">\n                                    <article class=\"purdue-home-cta-card has-content-bottom\" data-link=\"https:\/\/dev.www.purdue.edu\/fnr\/sites\/hardiman\/biogenic-carbon-emissions-in-the-urban-ecosystem-ongoing\/\" data-target=\"_blank\"><div class=\"card-image\"><figure class=\"image is-16by9\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/dev.www.purdue.edu\/fnr\/sites\/hardiman\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2025\/07\/hardimanslideshow18.jpg\"\/><\/figure><\/div><div class=\"flex-container flex-container--align-bottom\"><p><a class=\"purdue-home-cta-grid__card-title \" href=\"https:\/\/dev.www.purdue.edu\/fnr\/sites\/hardiman\/biogenic-carbon-emissions-in-the-urban-ecosystem-ongoing\/\" target=_blank aria-label=\"Learn More (Opens in a new tab)\">Biogenic Carbon Emissions in the Urban Ecosystem (ongoing)<\/a><\/p><\/div><\/article>                                <\/div>\n                                                            <div class=\"column is-4-desktop is-half-tablet\">\n                                    <article class=\"purdue-home-cta-card has-content-bottom\" data-link=\"https:\/\/dev.www.purdue.edu\/fnr\/sites\/hardiman\/effects-of-structural-biological-diversity-on-forest-productivity-ongoing\/\" data-target=\"_blank\"><div class=\"card-image\"><figure class=\"image is-16by9\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/dev.www.purdue.edu\/fnr\/sites\/hardiman\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2025\/07\/slideshow15.jpg\"\/><\/figure><\/div><div class=\"flex-container flex-container--align-bottom\"><p><a class=\"purdue-home-cta-grid__card-title \" href=\"https:\/\/dev.www.purdue.edu\/fnr\/sites\/hardiman\/effects-of-structural-biological-diversity-on-forest-productivity-ongoing\/\" target=_blank aria-label=\"Learn More (Opens in a new tab)\">Effects of Structural &amp;
