Understanding Reactive Nitrogen: Implications for agriculture, environment and climate
Join this FREE talk by Professor Tim Clough as he shares his research insights into nitrogen cycling, greenhouse gas mitigation, and the critical role of science in supporting climate-resilient agriculture.
Date: Tuesday 12th August 2025.
Time: 4 to 5.30pm
Location: Waimarie Building at Lincoln University.
Internationally recognised for his expertise in soil nitrogen dynamics, Professor Tim Clough has led groundbreaking studies exploring how nitrogen behaves in pastoral systems - particularly how it transforms and moves through soil following urine deposition and fertiliser application. His work has been pivotal in understanding and mitigating emissions of the potent greenhouse gas nitrous oxide.
By combining field experimentation with advanced analytical techniques, including isotopic tracing, his research has directly informed sustainable land management practices and climate policy both in New Zealand and internationally. His insights have contributed to national greenhouse gas inventories and underpinned practical nutrient management strategies tailored to pastoral farming systems.
