Kate Congreves
- Associate Professor, Jarislowsky & BMO Research Chair in Regenerative Agriculture, University of Saskatchewan
Dr. Congreves' research program is focused on understanding nitrogen (N) flows, cycling, and losses in crop production systems. She studies the fundamental mechanisms that regulate N cycling ecosystem processes in a range of cropping systems, including field crops, specialty crops, and horticultural crops. Her lab specializes in field-based agronomy research, using 15N stable isotopes techniques to trace N dynamics, and measuring greenhouse gas emissions via flux gradient micrometeorological techniques and with chambers. Current projects are addressing how diversification of cropping systems can control soil N transformations and supply, crop N uptake and use efficiency, and N2O emission dynamics. The long-term vision is widespread implementation of sustainable N management, and the creation of regenerative agroecosystems that do not pose reactive-N threats to our environment.
