Soil Microbial Ecology and Biogeochemistry
We got out to my field trial site out at Mt. Pleasant a couple of weeks ago to re-establish the plots, and to sample them for our visiting student, Romy’s research. She’ll be asking some very interesting questions about biochar’s interactions with soil aggregation after a year of being in the soil, using a whole …
I just wanted to post a shot from my field trial setup. I’ve been measuring CO2 flux, sampling gas for 13C/12C isotopes, and collecting soil samples for microbial community analyses. I’ve got plots with and without BC, as well as an original biomass treatment. The little shoots that will be poking their heads out are …
