New paper published in #NatureFood with an stellar leadership by Shuo Jiao. We show that agricultural microbiomes are more resistant to warming than natural exosystems, based on a natural gradient and a set of mechanistic lab experiments www.nature.com/articles/s43...

Somehow cartoonists see things happening well in advance. Perhaps all their ideas are stolen by villains.

New paper in Global Change Biol.: soil organic carbon increases crop yields and reduces interannual variability, but largest gains occur under moderate water conditions, not drought. SOC needs water to work. w @muellern.bsky.social @kyoungchoi.bsky.social Jesse Burkhardt doi.org/10.1111/gcb....

Beautiful footage from the SACC trial at ICA @csic.es where we study whether no till & cover crops can buffer warming effects on agroecosystem services

To address climate change, we need to stop and spend a few minutes understanding what causes it. If you think it's just “CO2 from burning fossil fuels”, you're missing a big part of the story. Like ~40% of climate change caused by other things. Learn more here. drawdown.org/insights/the...

😂Have a great weekend!

This paper is worth reading

Hot from the oven! Congrats @acampos-caliz.bsky.social for this nice paper from her PhD We show that soil carbon increases the stability of crop yield over time, which is critical to help farmers dimension their activity in a climate change context www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Happy to have contributed to this interesting study with @laprimatecuriosa.bsky.social, @pablogarciapal.bsky.social, Manuel Delgado Baquerizo, María Leo, and others link.springer.com/article/10.1...

New laboratory experiments from the University of Leeds shows that thawing permafrost can become 25 to 100 times more permeable, allowing greenhouse gases to escape into the atmosphere much more easily than when frozen. www.earth.com/news/thawing...

Proud to be part of this global synthesis shedding light on POC and MAOC losses with climate change @csic.es www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Check out the new issue of ECOSYSTEMS, great studies in ecosystem ecology across a wide range of systems and scales. We welcome your manuscripts! Top-notch editorial board, quality reviews, timely publication. @steve-carpenter.bsky.social @springernature.com link.springer.com/journal/1002...

Our new experimental evolution study across 30+ locations using the plant Arabidopsis thaliana —— we direct "see" adaptation and extinction to different climates at the genetic as it happens! Read it in Science dx.doi.org/10.1126/scie... @ucberkeleyofficial.bsky.social @hhmi-science.bsky.social

How tightly are plant biomass & soil nutrients linked worldwide?Our new study (400+ sites across all biomes) in J Sustain Agric Environ shows climate plays a key role in decoupling this relationship—challenging classic views of nutrient limitation onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10....

New paper in Advances in Ecological Research: 'Quantifying the impact of social and ecosystem changes through expanded ecosystem multifunctionality metrics'. Led by Margot Neyret, we present the 'netNCP' approach. www.sciencedirect.com/science/chap...

Guo Zhou just published this excellent article in @natclimate.nature.com on how drought shapes warming effects on soil carbon losses www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Crop rotations have been around for 1000s of years--great for sustainability and climate adaptation, but can they deliver all the food we need? In short, yes! and even more calories, proteins and fats than cereal monocultures: www.nature.com/articles/s43...

I'll be presenting my group's research on how microbe mediate soil carbon accrual in agricultural soils. Join in!

Very proud that Project Drawdown scientists contributed to this effort to map greenhouse gas emissions from agriculture. Important work! This helps us highlight where the biggest problems are, and where we need to focus our solutions work. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

📣🪱 The Global Soil Biodiversity conference is right around the corner! Check out this primer to Dr. Julia Köninger's presentation. Dr. Köninger discusses the importance of methodological considerations (morphological vs. molecular) in soil research! www.globalsoilbiodiversity.org/blog-beneath...

My good friend Iván Roiz (ivanroiz.com) is a documentalist, and has finished as series of videos about the EU proj SANCHOSTHIRST on soil health in olive groves. The footage is beautiful and the videos really informative for stakeholders and students. Please share! www.youtube.com/watch?v=9WHc...

Data from long-term experiments in Finnish peatlands shows that warming induces a metabolic response in boreal Sphagnum peatlands that enhances accumulation of soil carbon, in contrast to the carbon losses in response to warming in boreal forests and tundra 🧪 www.nature.com/articles/s41...

If we don’t slow down, the research enterprise is going to crash, argues Adrian Barnett go.nature.com/4pRniHp

Si los primeros que han ido a socorrer a los accidentados han sido y los vecinos y no los servicios de emergencias es por algo MUY sencillo que a muchos no os entra en la cabeza: LOS VECINOS ESTÁN MÁS CERCA. OSTIAS. Y esto SIEMPRE ocurre así. En TODA emergencia. NO porque los SSEE sean inútiles.
