How do changes in land use and plant community affect the activity of soil microbes and their carbon use efficiency? Louis is a PhD student at the Swedish University of Agricultural Science (SLU). He conducts field experiments to see how microbial communities in the soil respond to changes in plant communities in terms of their activity and carbon turn-over. Department & Group: Department of Soil and Environment, Group of Nutrient Cycling, SLU Supervisors: Anke M. Herrmann, Johanna Wetterlind, Martin Weih, Stefano Manzoni, Naoise Nunan Dissertation title (as for now 😀) Responses of microbial physiology to changes in land management: a bioenergetics approach Topic – in brief Testing whether changes in…
