Soil controls on C dynamics in temperate rainforests

March 22, 2024, 3:00 pm to 4:00 pm

In person in Room 154 MacMillan (UBCV) or online via zoom

Join us for a talk by Oliver Heath on his MSc research on “Soil controls on carbon dynamics in the temperate rainforests of of British Columbia and their sensitivity to clear cutting” this Friday March 22, at 3:00 pm.

Oliver Heath is an alumnus of the University of Victoria undergraduate chemistry program who is undertaking a master’s of soil science at UBC under the supervision of JT Cornelis. He is currently studying the role pedogenic processes hold the dynamics of carbon in forest soils. Another focus of his research is the impact of forestry-based disturbance on those same soils. His project will be done in collaboration with the UBC faculty of Land and Food systems and the Mother Tree Project. Oliver hopes that his research can be used to minimize environmental damage that could lead to an acceleration of climate change.
