ADNHS: Soil – the brown gold that underpins our very survival
08/02/2024 to
An Arnside & District Natural History Society Event.
Professor John Quinton of Lancaster University will give a talk on the importance of soil. John is passionate about soil, the ‘brown gold’ that underpins our survival, but which most people take for granted.
He has spent the last 30 years working on understanding and predicting the soil erosion processes that degrade soil functions, soil monitoring, how we can protect soils better and how soils can be managed to mitigate flooding.
