What's the latest rate of global warming? Has it accelerated to 0.27°C or to 0.36°C per decade?
Statistician Tamino explains why he has more confidence in a *continuous* piecewise linear fit (as in our preprint) rather than a discontinous piecewise linear fit. tamino.wordpress.com/2025/06/20/a...

Another Estimate of the Warming Rate

Conventional and organic farms with more intensive management have lower soil functionality
It was more the specific practices (like cover cropping and tillage) that were important

Conventional and organic farms with more intensive management have lower soil functionality
Organic farming is often considered to be more sustainable than conventional farming. However, both farming systems comprise highly variable management practices. In this study, we show that in organi...

🚀 Using data from a 40-year field trial, we show that organic cropping systems not only transform soil biodiversity but also supercharge its metabolic potential for nutrient cycling with lasting consequences for soil C, N, and P stocks. 🌾 #SustainableAgriculture #SoilHealth
