About Me
Dr Marcelo Valadares Galdos, Soil Carbon Specialist at Rothamsted Research, works on soil health and climate-smart agriculture using crop, soil and climate monitoring and modelling to assess the impact of climate change, land use and agricultural management practices on yields, soil organic matter, soil moisture, nutrient use efficiency and greenhouse gas fluxes. His research combines novel sensors, spatial analysis, process-based models, Earth Observation and life cycle assessment to develop mitigation and adaptation strategies in agricultural systems, contributing to Net Zero targets, food and energy security, and environmental sustainability.
