Paul Withers is a Emeritus Professor of Catchment Biogeochemistry in the Lancaster Environment Centre at Lancaster University with particular interests in sustainable phosphorus use, and how we can recycle and recover phosphorus in agricultural settings.
Shane Rothwell was a Senior Research Associate on the RePhoKUs project at the Lancaster Environment Centre at Lancaster University. Shane’s interest is in creating new knowledge that delivers sustainable and resilient food systems with a particular focus on improving phosphorus use-efficiency in agriculture and utilising alternative sources of nutrients for crop nutrition. Shane continues to work on phosphorus sustainability by applying SFA approaches to better understand how we use phosphorus at catchment, regional and national scales.
Kirsty Ross (Forber) was a Senior Research Associate on the RePhoKUs project at the Lancaster Environment Centre at Lancaster University. Kirsty’s interest is in understanding catchment properties that govern phosphorus movement in the environment and how such knowledge can aid the development of sustainable, resilient farming into an uncertain future. Kirsty remains actively engaged in food system phosphorus research at multiple scales.
