Event 11th Dahlia Greidinger Memorial Symp. on "Advanced methods for investigating nutrient dynamics in soils and ecosystems"

The main objective of this symposium is to re-examine knowledge gaps and R&D priorities, to better cope with the needs to quantify nutrient dynamics and reaction mechanisms, particularly those of nitrogen and phosphorus in crop/food production systems, with special emphasis on interactions with organic loads/wastes and under possible global changes (warming and/or rainfall/ water scarcities), and the urgent need to assure sustainable crop/food production with minimal environmental threats.

Special emphasis will be put on advanced and novel tools and approaches (including those developed in other disciplines) enabling real time/online investigation and quantification of processes and referring to options to observe and model changes at various scales (from nano/micro up to field scale).

Tools and methods leading to improved and sustainable utilization of nutrients will be presented and discussed as well. For further information: http://dgsymp13.technion.ac.il/
