Iron is a pivotal element in environmental systems, undergoing complex redox reactions that influence global nutrient cycles, carbon sequestration, and pollutant dynamics. Its biogeochemistry ...

Heavy weather events cause an inordinate amount of organic material to bypass headwater systems, say researchers, pushing them downstream into larger rivers and coastal waters and inland basins -- ...

Biogeochemistry is the scientific discipline that involves the study of the chemical, physical, geological, and biological processes and reactions that govern the composition of the natural ...

The study of the interactions of the chemistry of the atmosphere and oceans with ecosystems, weather, and climate.

We use climate models and oceanographic observations to study the biogeochemistry of the ocean, including its carbon cycle. Many of our studies look at the connection between the ocean carbon cycle ...

The Soils and Biogeochemistry Graduate Program focuses on the study of physical, chemical, and biological processes that occur in the soils of different landforms and ecosystems. These studies assess ...

Ancient fatty molecules, once believed to be traces of some of the first animals to live on Earth, may have been produced by algae instead.

Faculty members in the Department of Natural Resources & Environmental Science have strong research interests and expertise in biotic and abiotic controls on element cycling in terrestrial ecosystems.

A Mineral Biogeochemistry Research Infrastructure Platform, the Centre for Mineral Biogeochemistry, has been set up at the Bloemfontein campus of the University of ...
