Research Intrest

I am an ecologist and a soil scientist. My research focuses on the interactions between soils and the provision on ecosystem services in urban and agricultural ecosystems, this includes: Soil and vegetation carbon budgeting The potential for own-grown food and biofuel production in urban areas, and urban/agricultural land-use trade-offs The mechanisms driving soil-to-own-grown food crop transfer of soil pollutants The mechanisms driving soil carbon storage in urban areas - the importance of black carbon Engaging the public, through the use of citizen science methodologies, and policy-makers with scientific research
