I am a PhD-student in the Soil chemistry research group, focused on mass balances of cadmium in agricultural soil. I'm interested in how cadmium moves in the soil-plant system and how that can impact usage on recycled nutrient sources as fertilizer.
Presentation
My interest in soil chemistry and properties of metals was sparked during my high school thesis on the subject of arsenic uptake in lettuce. It has then followed me through my MSc in Water and environmental engineering as well as working with risk assessments of environmental contaminants as an environmental consultant, to my current position as a PhD-student in the project Towards better risk assessment of cadmium in agricultural soil for sustainable nutrient management.
Research
In my PhD project, I'm investigating the leaching properties of cadmium in naturally occurring concentrations and crop cadmium uptake as well as cadmium levels in recycled nutrient sources, in order to calculate sustainable application rates of recycled nutrent sources that do not increase cadmium levels in agricultural soils.
