We are hiring a Junior Specialist: Biometeorology and Ecosystem Fluxes of Mixed Redwoods-Conifer Forests in Northern California recruit.ucdavis.edu/JPF06252 to work at UC Davis with Holly Oldroyd, Kyaw Tha and myself! Also @lbnl collaborators Housen Chu and others!
🚨 Our new paper is out!! 🚨 We developed a conceptual framework to align understanding on the impact of #grazing on soil organic #carbon using a combined lens of plant ecophysiology + soil biogeochemistry & a REAL description of grazing management 🐂 onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/gc…

Wrapped up the third year of bud break sampling for our research (Jonathan Lundgren / Ecdysis & Amélie Gaudin labs) examining how grazing and regenerative management affects soil health biodiversity, input usage, yield, and grape quality. The study now spans 49 sites across N CA.
A nice article highlighting a collaborative study Earth and Environmental Sciences at Berkeley Lab Cal State East Bay shows how low-cost compost applications can be an effective tool for enhancing carbon sequestration across California rangelands Tommy Fenster Patty Oikawa

Just wrapped up veraison sampling for our (Amélie Gaudin & Jonathan Lundgren labs) project studying the effect of grazing & other regenerative practices on soil health, biodiversity, input usage, yield & grape quality. We sampled insects, assessed ground cover & took petiole samples.
University of California and @UCANR Cooperative Extension scientists have been investigating the feasibility of growing crops in empty lots and other urban settings. The team has created a small farm to test their ideas with the help of Dept. of Agriculture funding. bit.ly/3yKdWIW
#Grape can be grown for 🍷 raisins and table grape 🍇! It can also be grown for shade! Very interesting project Ag&Natural Resources to explore the use of 🍇 and other vine #plants to provide urban cooling. Vigorous and 🍇 producing vines can achieve both shading and urban farming!
