Funded Activity Summary
Coastal permeable sediments as a novel source of greenhouse gases. Emissions of the greenhouse gases nitrous oxide and methane are increasing from unknown sources. High concentrations of these gases have been observed in coastal waters which bear the brunt of nutrient pollution (primarily nitrogen) from cities and agriculture. This project aims to investigate the sources of these gases within these environments and the processes that lead to their formation. This new knowledge is expected to develop new models which aim to enable us to better predict the emissions of greenhouse gases within coastal waters. Expected benefit of this will be strategies to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.Funded Activity Details
