HSBC field trip #6 (MEL)

By Blue Carbon Lab | Citizen Science, Fieldwork | Comments are Closed | 28 November, 2018 | 0

Kick-off for the HSBC Citizen Science program in Melbourne! Blue Carbon research was conducted in Jawbone, a small coastal reserve located 30 min from the CBD. Activities were led by scientists from the Blue Carbon Lab (Peter Macredie, Paul Carnell, Maria Palacios, Pawel Waryszak) who showed participants how to conduct biomass surveys of mangrove treesRead more

HSBC Field trip #4 & 5 (SYD)

By Blue Carbon Lab | Citizen Science, Fieldwork, HSBC | Comments are Closed | 23 November, 2018 | 0

Sunny and productive back-to-back field trips at Towra Point! After the morning talks at HSBC headquaters, participants joined us in the field to conduct the third monitoring of the nutrient plots. Work consisted in collecting small soil cores, taking microbe samples, and -of course- finding the 60 tea bags. Although the tea bags have beenRead more

Greenhouse gas fluxes of freshwater wetlands in the Murray LLS region

By Blue Carbon Lab | Fieldwork | Comments are Closed | 6 November, 2018 | 0

Freshwater scientists from the Blue Carbon Lab completed a 14 day field trip to the Murray Local Land Services (LLS) region in NSW, where they monitored carbon stocks and fluxes from a floodplain billabong. Wetlands are known to store significant quantities of carbon, but they can also produce greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide (CO2),Read more

Farm’s dam good place to cut carbon emissions: World-first study

By Blue Carbon Lab | News, Publication | Comments are Closed | 5 November, 2018 | 0

A Deakin study quantifying the greenhouse gas emissions from farm dams for the first time has shown they are a significant contributor to manmade climate change, but that emissions could be cut in half with targeted changes to farming practices. The study, published today in the journal Global Change Biology, sampled agricultural dams from regionalRead more
