Highly interdisciplinary project to optimize the biological systems in vegetation strips (VS) for the removal of pollutants and nutrient recovery from agricultural runoff, by coupling advanced microbial ecology techniques with traditional sustainable practices. Agricultural non-point source pollution management is critical in controlling the quality of our watersheds. VS are effective improving water quality, however, there are several caveats related to the extended use of VS, including soil characteristics, slope, flowrate, soil microbial activity, and accumulation of pesticides. This strategy will provide a comprehensive understanding of the processes involved in nutrient uptake in vegetation strips, which will be optimized with local and ubiquitous resources for a sustainable and resilient solution. The researcher will use advanced environmental and state-of-the-art molecular techniques to identify key biogeochemical processes controlling nutrient recovery and pesticide removal in VS. The results from this project are expected to produce a sustainable system for efficient pollution control that can be easily implemented in the major areas of concern between agricultural lands and main water bodies.

高度跨学科的项目，以优化植被带（VS）的生物系统，通过将先进的微生物生态学技术与传统的可持续做法相结合，从农业径流中去除污染物和养分。农业非点源污染管理对于控制我们流域的质量至关重要。VS可以有效改善水质，但是，有几个与VS的扩展使用相关的警告，包括土壤特性，坡度，流量，土壤微生物活性和农药积累。这一战略将提供一个全面的了解过程中所涉及的营养吸收植被带，这将是优化与当地和无处不在的资源，可持续和有弹性的解决方案。研究人员将使用先进的环境和国家的最先进的分子技术，以确定关键的生态地球化学过程控制营养物质的回收和农药的去除VS从这个项目的结果预计将产生一个可持续的系统，有效的污染控制，可以很容易地实施在农业用地和主要水体之间的主要关注领域。
