A review of planting principles to identify the right place for the right tree for ‘net zero plus’ woodlands
We outline the principles of the natural capital approach to decision making and apply these to the contemporary challenge of very significantly expanding woodlands as contribution to attaining net zero emissions of greenhouse gases. Drawing on the case of the UK, we argue that a single focus upon carbon storage alone is likely to overlook the other ‘net zero plus’ benefits which woodlands can deliver. A review of the literature considers the wid…
The challenge of modelling nitrogen management at the field scale
The United Kingdom currently reports nitrous oxide emissions from agriculture using the IPCC default Tier 1 methodology. However Tier 1 estimates have a large degree of uncertainty as they do not account for spatial variations in emissions. Therefore biogeochemical models such as DailyDayCent (DDC) are increasingly being used to provide a spatially disaggregated assessment of annual emissions. Prior to use, an assessment of the ability of the mod…
Sustainable energy crop production
Role Relations and Value Adaptation
The idea of a general professional/bureaucrat conflict has a very narrow empirical base. It is suggested that such conflict may be 'value specific' or 'role specific'. To test this, a sample of members of the Institute of Chartered Accountants was drawn as a criterion professional group, because of the equal distribution of its members between private practice and industry. The profession's values were operationalized in specific terms as being c…
