K-State professor helped author Nobel Peace Prize winning United Nations report on climate change
The Nobel Peace Prize won by Al Gore and the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change has a Kansas connection. Chuck Rice, Kansas State University professor of agronomy, served with more than 100 other climate change experts from across the world to prepare the full report on mitigation.
K-State professor and contributor to Nobel Prize-winning work looks at next wave of research in greenhouse gas mitigation through agriculture
Charles W. Rice and other researchers at K-State and its partner institutions already are hard at work pursuing the next phase of research that will find agricultural solutions to climate change.
Computer modeling helps K-State researchers explore how to use biomass and still keep organic matter in soil
Interest in cellulosic ethanol --using crop biomass sources -- is increasing. So K-State researchers are seeing how farmers might be able to take advantage of biomass for cellulosic ethanol without depleting organic matter in the soil.
