The Influence of Urban Soil Rehabilitation on Soil Carbon Dynamics, Greenhouse Gas Emission, and Stormwater Mitigation
… has resulted in rapidly increased urban land. Soils are the foundation that supports plant growth and human activities in urban areas. Furthermore, urban soils have potential to provide a carbon sink to mitigate greenhouse gas emission and climate change. However, typical urban land development …

Soil microbial function in a time of global change: effect of dairy antibiotics on soil microbial communities and ecosystem function
… whether antibiotics have effects beyond soil through impacts on plant-microbe-soil feedbacks, thus potentially altering terrestrial ecosystem function. Chapter 4 investigates how rising global temperature interacts with antibiotic exposure through a microcosm-incubation experiment. These …

Multi-scale analysis of carbon stocks and process indicators in the agro-ecosystem of Canterbury, New Zealand
Increasing interest in characterising carbon dynamics in the agricultural landscape has been driven by the clear need for greenhouse gas mitigation strategies in response to global climate change. However, little quantitative information is available about carbon stocks and processes in …

EVALUATION OF LAND, SOIL, WATER, AND VEGETATION-RELATED ECOSYSTEM SERVICES AND TRADEOFFS AT UTILITY-SCALE SOLAR PHOTOVOLTAIC FACILITIES
… by the solar photovoltaics (PV) and the soil-vegetation components of a co-located system to benefit each other. One predicted co-benefit is cooling of PV modules caused by diversion of sensible heat to latent heat for evapotranspiration in the understory vegetation during the growing …
