Biochar papers from Finland

Biochar has been intensively studied in Finland during past couple of years, resulting in constantly increasing number of  peer-reviewed papers published. In order to make it easier to find the papers, we have listed the Finnish biochar articles on this page, sorted by date of publishing. We have chosen the papers that fulfill the following criteria:

a) the papers target biochar use as a soil amendment material
b) the papers have been published in peer-reviewed journals

c) the research is conducted in Finland.
 
Should you know biochar papers from Finland that have not yet been added to the list, please contact us!
