Research Interests
Arezoo Taghizadeh-Toosi received her Ph.D. in Soil & Physical Sciences from Lincoln University, New Zealand (2011). She worked as a postdoctoral researcher at Manaaki-Whenua-Landcare Research, New Zealand (2011-2012). She moved to Denmark in 2012 and was first a scientist at Aarhus University (2012-2021) and then as a senior scientist at Danish Technological Institute (2021-2024). Her expertise is on agricultural soil C & N turnover, measurements of GHG emissions and NH3 volatilization, mitigation of agricultural emissions (i.e. biochar and inhibitors), and soil organic carbon (SOC) modelling.
