Jan Rinze van der Schoot

Jan Rinze van der Schoot is a Researcher at Wageningen University & Research, specializing in grassland science and soil quality. His work focuses on the ecological dynamics of white clover (Trifolium repens), particularly its population persistence linked to taproot development, and carbon sequestration in grasslands for climate mitigation.

• Key Research Areas: White Clover, Population Dynamics, Soil Science, Long-term Experiments
• Collaborations: Active in PPS projects on grasslands, climate, and biodiversity

Recent activities include presentations on carbon storage in grasslands (2022-2024) and studies on clover population dynamics in peer-reviewed journals like Grass and Forage Science. His work intersects sustainable agriculture, plant-soil interactions, and ecological function optimization.
