🧟 Soil Fun Fact: Zombie carbon, or when the underground comes back to life! Soil holds more carbon than all plants + the atmosphere, but when disturbed, some of it “rises from the dead” as CO₂! 🎃 Keep that #ZombieCarbon buried this #Halloween 🌱 #EGUSSS #SoilScience #CarbonCycle

Soil phosphate availability drives the shifts in the mycorrhizal types in the dual mycorrhizal Quercus serrata. nph.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/pdf/10.1...

New paper out led by Boaz Himan: 14C‐Age of Carbon Used to Grow Fine Roots Reflects Tree Carbon Status - Plant, Cell & Environment - Wiley Online Library onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/... presenting novel insights from a Swiss alpine treeline 🌲⛰️🌡️📈

Happy to see this paper published! We used a mesocosm platform to study how soil water limitation intensity alters the cycling of nitrogen at the tree-soil interface rdcu.be/eCB3L

Excited to see this paper out! We used NEON data to explore the relationship between fine root and soil carbon stocks. With @sr-weino.bsky.social @katerinageorgiou.bsky.social @aaberhe.com @josephtumber.bsky.social @mingzhenlu.bsky.social et al. doi.org/10.1038/s432...

🌈 Celebrating diversity at #iDiv! This week —and every week— iDiv affirms that diversity in all its forms strengthens science, community, and collaboration. 🧬

Take note, Dutch government. Von der Leyen is right. We are nowhere without free, open, funded science.

The AmazonFACE project is offering post doc scholarships, based in Manaus, Brazil!

It was a great opportunity to present at #EGU25. Thanks to @loutsi.bsky.social, @plantsoilemily.bsky.social, Tessa Camenzind and the other co-conveners for organising such a nice session!

I have uptaken the NO3- that was in the B horizon and which you were probably saving for spring Forgive me it was nutritious so nitrogenous and oxidized

Are you a plant science researcher working towards a PhD or an early career researcher who completed their PhD no more than five years ago? Consider applying to the Next Generation Scientists 2025 meeting, sponsored by New Phytologist! #botany www.newphytologist.org/nextgenevent...

Excited to join this EGU session as a keynote speaker. Great conference in an amazing city. Consider submissions on soil microbes and climate change.

Could not make it to #BES2024 or to the cross-biome tree root trait and function session @moniqueweemstra.bsky.social and I organized? No worries, I will summarize it here.

Curious how forest microclimate and soil microbes drive carbon cycling in a changing climate? 🌡️🌳🍄We're offering a 4-year PhD position at @mycopat.bsky.social, SLU-Uppsala. A cool new project in collaboration with @linegreis.bsky.social Apply now or help spread the word! www.slu.se/en/about-slu...
