Hemp could play a role in the development and expansion of a low carbon, environmentally responsible industry, bringing a new ācash-cropā to Scottish agriculture and offering new job opportunities across the supply chain. This type of low carbon innovation is currently supported by the Scottish Government in the public sector (i.e.
Angela has vast experience of spectral interpretation. She is working on NSIS soils to obtain spectral information and making correlations with Carbon data and developing an analytical method for a portable FTIR instrument using NSIS soils to replicate field studies.

Infrared (IR) Spectroscopy is a versatile analytical technique that can characterise a wide variety of different sample types e.g. from drugs and plastics to soil and minerals. The IR spectrum produced is a chemical āfingerprintā or profile of a sample and allows us to āseeā what it is made up of.
Dr Eulyn Pagaling was awarded her PhD in Environmental Microbiology in 2008 from the University of Leicester, where she investigated the microbial ecology of salt lakes and hot spring microbial mats in China, including the discovery of novel viruses that infect Halorubrum kocurii. She undertook a postdoctoral position at the University of Edinburgh, where she used the Winogradsky column as a model system to investigate factors affecting microbial community assembly and microbial community composition.

I am a senior researcher in conservation behaviour / environmental psychology focusing on the nature-health-sustainable behaviours nexus. I draw on an interdisciplinary background in molecular biology, natural resource management, conservation behaviour and environmental psychology to investigate the interface between people and their environmental settings (for example, natural, built, home, office) with an aim to develop bridges between issues of ecological quality, health/wellbeing and sustainability.

Eleanor is a researcher at the Moredun Research Institute. Her research focusses on Campylobacter species and other zoonotic pathogens.
Current interests:
Grasslands, carbon sequestration and greenhouse gases
What are the benefits of grasslands?
Globally, grasslands represent 70% of the agricultural land area. In Scotland the figure is even higher (approximately 80%), due to the contribution from rough grazing on land less favourable for agriculture (LFA).
River temperature influences biogeochemical processes and aquatic ecology. Sustaining cool river temperatures in Scotland is essential for aquatic ecology (including the habitat and health of Atlantic salmon (Salmo Salar) and brown trout (Salmo trutta). River temperatures are also critical for our economy e.g. sport fishing contributes around Ā£113 million per year to Scottish rural economy and our food and drink industry e.g. whisky production.
The benefit of hindsight is that we can learn from our experiences, but history is not always a good guide to the future. The benefit of foresight, as provided by projections of a future climate, is that we can explore the range of conditions we might experience and better prepare to reduce risks and benefit from opportunities.
The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) have released a stark warning of the consequences of uncontrolled greenhouse gas emissions in a recent Special Report. We now recognise that to avoid dangerous climate change, it will be necessary to limit global temperature rises to no more than 1.5oC above preindustrial levels.
