It only seems like yesterday since he first arrived but today Joss submitted his PhD thesis. Great work and good luck for his Postdoc in northern peatlands.

Here we are with family and friends – a year older – at the Greenspace for our annual lunch gathering. What a beautiful day!

Louis has had a regular interview spot on RadioNZ speaking with Bryan Crump on a range of soils topics:

• Soil phosphorus
• Soil and plant roots
• Soil structure: sand silt and clay and other bits
• How soils treat waste
• Soil quality and health
• Wetland soils
• Greenhouse gas emissions from soil nitrous oxide
• Soil organic matter or carbon
• Soil nitrogen cycling

Louis gave a talk on managing soil carbon in grazed pastures: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wtuJMagT9yo

This was during the Climate change conference hosted by NZAGRC.

Jamie graduated today gaining her MSc. Her thesis demonstrated carbon and nitrogen losses from irrigated pasture soils in comparison to adjacent dryland pastures. Great work!
