The Glandwr Forest Carbon Study was designed in partnership with leading scientists from Imperial College London, The Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, the University of Sheffield, and ETH Zurich. The largest field trial of its kind in the world, the study includes 72 individually managed research plots across 11.5 hectares of Welsh hillside.
The study looks at two strategies to increase forest carbon capture: enhanced rock weathering via addition of crushed silicate rock, and modification of the soil microbiome in two types of forests, broadleaf and conifer.
Research paper coming soon.
