Our group investigates
carbon, nutrient, and water dynamics in agro-ecosystems, grasslands, and
forests, and how these dynamics are affected by climate and land use change. Our research is focused on
plant-microbe-soil interactions that are critical for food production and
ecosystem functioning.
We are currently working on
the following projects:
- Drought
effects on soil carbon and nutrient cycling mediated by rhizosphere processes
- Carbon costs for plant uptake of nutrients and water
- Impacts
of biochar on soil nitrogen and phosphorus dynamics
- Effects
of phosphorus availability on nitrogen mineralisation and loss
