Luke Beesley
I am a researcher with a broad interest in soils, specifically improving degraded urban and contaminated soils using organic amendments. In this respect I am interested in how degraded brownfield sites may be reclaimed by the addition of recycled wastes, and how stabilisation using vegetation can be promoted on these sites. I am also very interested in new methodologies for monitoring environmental pollution. Most recently my direction of research has taken me towards biochar, and its potential to improve soils physically, chemically and biologically.
