Project
Understanding the microbial world in the soil is key to finding sustainable agricultural practices that work to protect the environment. Using a unique approach
Theme: Climate
Project
Using the long-term rotation experiment near Elora, ON (established 1980) to study the impacts of tillage and diversity of crop rotations on a number
Project
Studying the impact of trees on carbon sequestration and greenhouse gas emissions in terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems.
Project
Monitoring soil and water quality after land-use change to biomass crops.
Project
Not all soil organic matter is the same, and soil management practices may impact types of organic matter differently. This research looks to explore
Project
Tradition methods for estimation soil organic carbon are expensive, time-consuming, and labour-intensive. This research looks to use drones and different optical sensors to remotely
Project
Re-tuning carbon models with modern cropping cultivars, practices, and soil amendments.
Project
Nitrogen losses from manure come at an economic cost to farmers in the form of lost nutrients, and an environmental cost in the form
Project
It is important that we understand environmental impacts of different manure storage practices. This research explores greenhouse gas emissions from different storage systems and
Project
Healthy soils provide essential ecosystem services (e.g. nutrient recycling, carbon sequestration, climate regulation, and water filtration) that sustain plants, animals, and humans. The growing
