Do plants need to sleep?
Honours project: There's evidence in some plants that lack of a dark period can inhibit growth - so do plants need sleep?
Aquatic plant photosynthesis as a driver of large pH changes in wetlands
Honours project: Explore large pH changes in wetlands and how aquatic plant photosynthesis contribute to this process.
