Nutrient uptake of plants treated with cold plasma and soil conditioners under drought stress conditions
This research project is designed for students interested in agronomy, environmental science, and soil management. This hands-on placement focuses on nutrient uptake in greenhouse-grown plants and examines the effects of innovative treatments, including cold plasma and soil conditioners. Through a combination of laboratory work and interactive sessions, participants will gain a solid foundational understanding of the principles of nutrient uptake, with particular emphasis on plants under drought stress.
General learning outcomes
- Understanding the effects of different treatment strategies on nutrient content in plants
- Improved skills in literature searching and reference management
- Improved skills in data analysis and data visualisation
- Understanding and mastery of laboratory approaches for measuring soil nutrient content
- Improved scientific writing and presentation skills
