In addition to i ncreasing soil quality\, biochar amendments sequester carbon within the so il. In most applications\, crop productivity significantly increases after agricultural soils are amended with biochar. However\, the mechanisms beh ind this increase are not fully understood\, nor is the influence of bioch ar on soil compaction. Therefore\, this laboratory study focuses on the in fluences of wood-derived biochar (WBC) on the physico-mechanical propertie s of agricultural soils prone to compaction.\n\nEveryone in the 91ºÚÁÏÍø com munity is welcome to attend a PhD oral defense. Please join us in celebrat ing the accomplishments of our PhD candidates.\n\n \n DTSTART:20180713T140000Z DTEND:20180713T140000Z LOCATION:R3-045\, Raymond Building\, CA\, QC\, St Anne de Bellevue\, H9X 3V 9\, 21111 Lakeshore Road SUMMARY:PhD Oral Defense: The influence of wood-derived biochar on physico- mechanical and hydraulic characteristics of agricultural soils: Implicatio ns for machine–soil interactions and carbon sequestration URL:/macdonald/channels/event/phd-oral-defense-influen ce-wood-derived-biochar-physico-mechanical-and-hydraulic-characteristics-2 87919 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
