📰Our paper on understanding the pros and cons of increasing soil organic matter in dryland systems is out 🌱🚜🌏 doi.org/10.1071/CP24257
A key focus of this review is soil processes & management strategies in low rainfall climates

Finished up in the lab last week and now (im)patiently awaiting the results of a different kind of incubation!
Great to be part of this - looking forward to learning more about the editorial process of science communication in journals!
Brilliant to meet our #ECR Editorial Board for the European Journal of #Soil Science @ejsoilscience in our first @wileyearthspace training sessions!
Our first cohort stretches across 4 continents & includes UK, Australia, China, Netherlands & USA!

Our latest paper on phosphorus reactions and plant-availability in Australian Vertisols - lead by @Nelly_Rmd_ !
Happy to share our latest article on #soil #phosphorus dynamics. We investigated the effect of various #fertilizer rates applied freshly and historically on P sorption and plant uptake on two contrasting #Vertisols from Australia doi.org/10.1007/s42729-024-0…

Looking forward to learning more about the editorial process within a great scientific journal!
To celebrate the 75th Anniversary of @ejsoilscience, 2024 sees the launch of the journal's first ECR Editorial Board. Chaired by Dr Dan Evans, the first cohort stretches across 4 continents, with members in the UK, Australia, China, Netherlands & the USA.

International Day of Women and Girls in Science (Feb 11). Females make up ~30% of STEM industries but trends suggest female participation in STEM is increasing.
Ladies - let's keep showing & supporting the girls of today to become great scientists of the future! #womeninscience
Our new project looking a fertiliser interactions with soil also has a new PhD position! Project and application details in the link below.

Happy World Soils Day! The 2023 theme - Soil & Water: a source of life. Highlighting the importance of the relationships between the two: >95% of food originates from these two resources.
Photo was taken yesterday in the lab - 8 different soils from all over Australia!
A huge honour to receive the 2023 IFA Emerging Scholar Award! I am confident that my research and that of my peers will continue to progress the scientific understanding which underpins sustainable solutions for crop nutrition around the world.
🏅 Congratulations to our 2023 IFA Science Award winners.
Dr. Jian Feng Ma for 30 years of plant nutrition research.
Dr. Shan Li & Dr. Chelsea Janke for their innovative work in crop efficiency & fertilizer dynamics.

It's National Agriculture Day! A time to recognise the enormous & important contributions of agriculture. Provisioning of food & fibre are core functions but there is SO much more to this complex & exciting industry.

A finalist for the 2023 Brian Chambers International ECR Award. Congratulations to my fellow ECRs working in crop nutrition - we get to work on the most interesting questions!
The judges of the 2023 Brian Chambers international award for early career researchers in crop nutrition buff.ly/43TyMzn have completed their scoring, and the 10 finalists are here. They will display their posters at our 2023 Conference: buff.ly/3q7sNsz
National Science Week AUS kicks off from 12 - 20 August! A week to celebrate science & technology. There is something for everyone: kids-adults, amateurs-pros. Find an event near you: scienceweek.net.au/

Our latest paper examines the dynamics of 'pure' and blended nitrogen fertilizer applications (urea and EEFs) in contrasting soils - can blends modify N supply to better mitigate losses and/or improve availability?

It looked suspiciously like we were just making sand castles but we've just finished two big days of harvesting N15-labelled chickpea. A few other crops to go, then we'll investigate decomposition & N 'release' in arable Australian soils.

Exciting new @CSIRO project funded by @theGRDC and industry partners to support grain producers to take account of #soil biota and understand how to fertilise the system, not just the crop.
