Wer nach dem Sturz des Diktators Assad sofort über Abschiebungen von Geflüchteten nach Syrien redet statt über Wiederaufbau, demokratische Regierungsbildung und Minderheitenschutz vor Ort, hat den politischen Weitblick einer durchschnittlichen Seegurke.

Happy World Soil Day 2024 🪱 with some news from our earthworm mesocosm experiment at @wslresearch.bsky.social 🧪

🎁Christmas came early at WSL: Our researchers unwrapped the wrapped tree on the WSL premises and collected its isotope-marked leaves for their research projects.🍁 More info in the how and why in our Instagram post: www.instagram.com/p/DC6fuQFoVb... @pdejong.bsky.social 📷 Philipp de Jong

Drought resistance and resilience of rhizosphere communities in forest soils from the cellular to ecosystem scale – insights from 13C pulse labeling

Hi! I’m a Phd student in soil science and biogeochemistry studying organic matter cycling in forest soils. Also interested in all things isotopes. And I have a fable for earthworms 🪱!

Entering Week 9 of respiration measurements in our earthworm mesocosms. 🪱🌱🌲🧪

Though crabs have evolved about 10 times, vertebrates have tried to become worms about 70 times. 🧪 📸Rhineura floridana, the Florida worm lizard, Nate Nazdrowicz
