We are honoured to invite you to avail Speaker/Delegate Opportunity at the 3rd International Conference on Earth Science & Climate Change (Earth Science-2014) during July 28-30, 2014 San Francisco, USA. We would look forward to your participation in this international event, if at all possible.
We are seeking candidates for a post‐doctoral fellowship with research focus on improving nitrogen management tools for reduced environmental losses from corn production. Research activities will involve validation and testing of the PNM model using an extensive data set on nitrous oxide emissions and nitrate leaching from corn. The validated models will be used to assess greenhouse gas emission intensity of Ontario’s corn sector and to evaluate the provincewide impact of 4R mitigation practices on environmental N losses.
