CO Meeting Organizer EGU21 An understanding of the drivers of hotspot/hot moments of N2O production is required to better constrain the global N2O budget and to plan the mitigation strategies. Hot spots are areas with very high N2O emission rates relative to the surrounding area, while hot moments are short periods of time wi...

Kravchenko Lab and collaborators presented a documentary video about current research on bioenergy crops and their environmental performance. Enjoy watching it!

MSU Science Festival The MSU Science Festival is a Free multi-day celebration of science, fueled by some of the basic elements essential to scientific inquiry: curiosity, wonder, and discovery.

Our graduate student Alyssa published her first paper as a corresponding author in Geoderma! Congratulations, Alyssa:)
