Dr Thi Hoang Ha Truong
Grant-Funded Postdoctoral Research Fellow
School of Agriculture, Food and Wine
College of Science
Eligible to supervise Masters and PhD (as Co-Supervisor) - email supervisor to discuss availability.
Thi is interested in how organic amendments influence soil nitrogen and phosphorus cycling, plant growth and nutrient uptake, and microbial activity. She is now working on the effect of long-term compost application on plant productivity and soil nitrogen and phosphorus dynamics under drought conditions.
