[bionet.general] Soil Scientists in the UK?

LLL1@PSUVM.BITNET (09/17/89)

I am a PHD candidate in soil science presently at Penn State University.
I would like to make contact with agronomists, soil scientists, agro-
ecologists, etc. in the UK, with hopes of learning about professional
meetings next June (1990) located in the UK. I am studying the spacial
and temporal distribution of nitrate in cropping systems supplied with
organic and inorganic sources of nitrogen.  My research is part of a
larger study measuring nitrate leaching from agro-ecosystems and subsequent
environmental impact.
I am interested in attending meetings in the UK next year so that I can
begin to make connections that will,hopefully, lead to a post-doc position
in the UK (preferably Scotland) in the summer of 1991.  Any ideas out
there on this one?  Please e-mail any responses, thanks - Laura.
