Come join us today at the @teagasc Climate Centre stand today at #Ploughing25 Block 4, Row 13, Stand 267 to find out about some of the amazing field research going on to help identify #climatechange mitigation strategies 🌍
We’re using fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) which gives high frequency measurements of gas emissions from large plots and can be used to measure ammonia from slurry application. Find at more with the Climate Centre team at #Ploughing25 today
Kate Devereux is at the @TeagascSignpost stand at #Ploughing2024
25% of carbon in soil is below 30cm! Kate and the signpost team are measuring carbon stocks at up to 60 cm and measuring carbon sequestration
Veronica Nyhan spoke to James Rambaud at the Teagasc stand at #Ploughing2024 to find out more about the soil carbon research that’s ongoing in Teagasc.
Delighted to present some work from my PhD at @igc2024dub in DCU where I once did my undergrad!
Great to see some familiar faces and meet new people from near and far.
We caught up with Dr Dominika Krol, Teagasc Researcher at yesterday’s Farming for a Better Future Open Day in Teagasc Johnstown Castle, Co. Wexford to find out more about gaseous emissions on farms. View the booklet here bit.ly/3W45ZWF
€1.24m has been awarded to the @teagasc project 'Carbon sequestration from Agricultural soils from different Land-uses, Managements and Soil types (CALMS)'. Dr Rachel Murphy is the project coordinator.
