Final week onshore applications @FindAPhD @phd_position @UQ_News graduate-school.uq.edu.au/ph…
You can
Year 1: survey soil carbon (theories, models, methods)
Year 2: test hypotheses (e.g. to humic or not to humic)
Year 3: break earth
Bonus: train me to be a better advisor along the way
PhD study on soil carbon @UQ_News @CMMUQ1 @ANSTO @ausynchrotron. Apply now at graduate-school.uq.edu.au/ph…. DM me to find out more. Retweet please.

We know about using keystone animals and plants to rewild ecosystems. But what about the soil critters that help make ecosystems tick? Do they establish on their own or do we need to intervene? New review out @Ecol_Evol @LTUresearchers #SoilHealth

Ok Melbourne we’re going to have to keep being kind to each other (and ourselves) until mid-September. This is hard, but the alternative is brutal
