Plant root rresence and root mass exhibit contrasting depth profile, opening a new paradigm for conceptualizing and measuring root dynamics.

Amazing paper Sharon! Thanks to your creativity + leadership for making this happen!

Very excited for this to come out just after presenting it at #AGU25. We show how fine root presence reveals deep root-regolith interactions more accurately than biomass, using root abundance data from 75 soil pits in many ecosystem types.
