Soil sample collection
The University of Warwick are looking at how urbanisation affects soil microbes. As part of this, they will be taking 5cm core samples of soil from both Newbold Comyn and St Nicholas Park in November 2021 and then subsequently four times per year across the seasons.
Each core sample area will be back filled with sand and the activity will only take around fifteen minutes.
