Dr. Stacey Trevathan-TackettAlfred Deakin Postdoctoral Research Fellow
Wetlands play a dual role in the carbon cycle, acting as both carbon sinks and greenhouse gas sources. Microbial communities in wetland soils drive these processes, but their activity is influenced by plant biodiversity, climate, and other factors.
This webinar explores how a global experiment using ordinary teabags is helping researchers compare tea litter decomposition and microbiomes across diverse wetlands. Learn about key findings from the first round of sample collections in this ongoing study.
- How wetlands contribute to the carbon cycle.
- The role of microbial communities in carbon sequestration and emissions.
- Insights from a global study using teabags to track decomposition.
Discover how this innovative research is deepening our understanding of wetland microbiomes and their impact on the environment.
