Hedgerow lined country road
Can planting hedgerows help prevent flooding?
Join us on 10th Dec, 12.00-12.40 to hear from Prof Pippa Chapman & Dr Sofia Biffi.
Pippa & Sofia have explored how hedgerows of different ages (from under 5 years to decades old) affect how well soil absorbs and drains water.

We've written a blog about our new paper! πIf you want to find out about net-zero aligned afforestation in the UK and how this might impact future biogenic emissions in a warmer climate, check out the summary blog @leedsleaf.bsky.socialπ³βοΈπ

A graph of percentage change in BVOC emissions following afforestation, relative to present day land cover. The X axis shows percentage change in isoprene and the Y axis shows percentage change in total monoterpene. Five Afforestation experiments are plotted, as well as the present day UK tree species mix which is shown at 0 by 0 in the bottom left of the graph. Further key details are explored in the main text of this article.
Increasing woodland cover to 19% to help reach net-zero could change the biogenic emissions from UK woodlands. @treeswithhazel.bsky.socialβs latest research shows the potential scale of change by 2050 associated with different tree species mixes.
