Dynamic soil landscape carbon modelling. Soil is the largest terrestrial store of carbon. This project will enhance our understanding of the causes and controls of spatial and temporal variations of soil carbon which is crucial for managing climate change, food water and energy security and for maintenance of biodiversity.
Securing soil and water using carbon. This project will ascertain the role of sequestered carbon in positively impacting on chemical, physical and biological and associated feedback mechanisms in order to increase the capacity of soil to store water and carbon. This information will allow us to maximise our ability to manage and rehabilitate Australia's increasing degraded soil resource.
