Weekly Photo Archive - Rothamsted in 2022

At Rothamsted the majority of the ECN protocols are centred on the Park Grass long-term grassland experiment with its history of botanical and ecological monitoring going back over 150 years (est. 1856). The photograph is looking across Plot 3, Section d (foreground) of Park Grass. This plot is of interest to the ECN as it receives Nil applications apart from those coming from the atmosphere. As you look further towards the background sections c, b, and a have received differing rates of agricultural lime (Chalk) and have differing plant communities to that of Plot 3, section d.
