Increased Retention of Litter‐Derived Organic Carbon With Increasing Initial Carbon Content in Temperate Agricultural Soils 🔗 buff.ly/slx2pXn

🧒🪱 Wie bringt man hochbegabten Grundschulkindern #Bodenkunde bei – mit echten Schaufeln? In SC175 spricht Christoph @genzelicious.bsky.social mit Jennifer Raffler, Thomas Scholten & Steffen Seitz über „An die Schaufeln, fertig, los!“ #Soilcast

Great Christmas opportunity if you search for a #PhD position in environmental sciences: #TERRA is searching for 15 doctoral students filling our first 5 Focus Unit (FUN) projects with life. Full post with all links here: uni-tuebingen.de/en/285483. MERRY CHRISTMAS & A HAPPY NEW YEAR from #TeamTERRA

Mit Putin sprechen ist sinnvoll - aus einer starken europäischen Position heraus. Also Schattenflotte in der Ostsee anhalten, europäische Luftverteidigung über die Ukraine erweitern, kein indisches Öl mehr kaufen, der Ukraine Taurus geben - dann Gespräch mit dem Kreml suchen.

Our new Tansley Review reveals hydrogen isotopes in plant carbohydrates aren't just climate indicators - they're powerful tools for understanding how plants actually function and perform metabolically. - New Phytologist

@terra-cluster.org is searching for a postdoc, who wants to take over communication amongst big global research initiatives, work on synthesis of #TERRA and other initiative's outcomes and contribute with that to key (inter-)national reports e.g. @ipcc.bsky.social, @ipbes.net, @leopoldina.org,...

Your 'doom quote' for today: "Nothing in predictive climate science is more cerain that the extinction of many of the world's mountain-dwelling species. We can even foretell which will be the first to go." www.goodreads.com/book/show/48...

Bummed to see corn plants drawn so clearly wrong. The tassel does not magically turn into an ear on the top of the plant. Not a great look for a plant journal.

The #MultiStress SP1 -Martin Komainda, @hannahschneider.bsky.social (@leibnizipk.bsky.social) & myself- will disentangle above-belowground #carbon & #nutrient allocation in response to single/multiple stresses in #maize.

The White House has been caught. The administration inserted a photo of Bill Clinton, Michael Jackson, and Diana Ross into the Epstein files and falsely implied it showed them with victims. In reality, it’s a publicly available fundraiser photo featuring Jackson and Ross’s own children.

Happy to finally announce that our @dfg.de Research Unit #MultiStress was finally approved for funding. So happy, to be part of this amazing team led by R. Rötter @uni-goettingen.de: Core field sites at @agrarunigoe.bsky.social & @JOOUST (Kenya) to unravel joint biotic & abiotic stresses on #maize🍾

Ungarn beweist, dass Solarenergie nicht "ideologisch" durchgesetzt wird (wie von der AfD behauptet), sondern sie inzwischen einfach die billigste Stromoption ist.

Deutschland ist auch 2025 eines der sichersten Länder der Welt. Der Dank geht an die AfD, Welt, Bild und Nius, dass ein großer Teil der Bevölkerung das nicht glaubt.

Finally the #GBI Christmas Party 2025 with 1) international buffet (this year with specialties from 10 nations) 2) Feuerzangenbowle (with only tiny-little table burning) & 3) UNO Flip (version battle-UNO 😅); With that the GBI-team @unituebingen.bsky.social wishes Merry Christmas & a Happy New Year

Congratulations @Elvira Sari Dewi: you prepared an excellent presentation for your #PhD defense, and Reimund Rötter, Tim Beissinger & me enjoyed our scientific exchange during your defense. One of the rare global #Sorghum #MultiStress studies targeting #salinity stress: well deserved achievement!

Soil viruses are important regulators of ecosystem function, but what are their roles in environments that face long-term degradation and restoration? In our paper published today in Nature Micro, we asked how soil viruses influence peatland recovery, and vice versa. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

TIL about a memorial ceremony in Iceland in 2019 to mark the end of a glacier, changing the place name from Okjökull to Ok (jökull = glacier). Uncompromising wording on the bronze plaque: "This is to acknowledge that we know what is happening and what needs to be done. Only you know if we did it".

Wovor Menschen (laut der CDU nahen Adenauer Stiftung) in Deutschland Angst haben: Russischer Aggression, Fremdenfeindlichkeit, Rechtsruck, AfD, Klimawandel, Desinformation. Grüße an eine vollkommen falsche politische und mediale Debatte. www.kas.de/documents/d/...

Dobrindt würde für seinen Abschiebewahn nicht nur sprichwörtlich über Leichen gehen, mit seinen Terrorfreunden tut er es faktisch: Er holt die Taliban nach Deutschland, gibt ihnen Zugriff auf die Daten ihrer Opfer, die er dann nach Afghanistan abschiebt. Und nun also auch Frauen. Was für ein Mensch!

Mit Berlin hat jetzt bereits das dritte Bundesland erkannt, dass kein Weg an der Prüfung eines AfD-Verbots vorbei führt: Grüne, Linke, SPD und CDU haben gemeinsam beschlossen, im Bundesrat Möglichkeiten eines AfD-Verbotsverfahrens auszuloten

Die USA beschließen, dass es jetzt offizielle Aufgabe der nationalen Sicherheit ist, Europa zum Faschismus zu bringen. Das hat reihenweise Auswirkungen für uns. Darauf, welche Ziele US-Geheimdienste verfolgen, US-Außenpolitik, US-Finanzierung von Parteien, wie US-Unternehmen agieren, Rechte usw.

We found that when temps hit 30°C+, C3 plants start struggling - their carbon metabolism gets disrupted, they burn through sugar stores faster, and even their isotope signatures change. Meanwhile C4 plants? They're basically chilling like "this is fine" 😎 www.nature.com/articles/s44...
