Mechanistic insights into how invasive plants affect the nitrogen cycle were presented by Sierra_Grange from SystemLink - Research Training Group at #EGU24

Greenhouse gas dynamics in artificial channels: a study conducted in the SystemLink - Research Training Group riparian stream mesocosm (RSM) in Landau.

The research, conducted through laboratory microcosm experiments, found that while chironomid larvae bioturbation did not significantly affect CH₄ emissions, biocide treatment resulted in higher emissions, suggesting a complex interaction between biotic factors and chemicals
