Geo-Biosphere Interactions (Prof @uni_tue: biogeochemist, microbial/soil ecologist): curious about biota driving element cycles and geo-bio-systems' trajectories - from single cell metabolism to global scale
Enjoyed the trip a lot - what an amazing team 😀
#EcoFuture | First Joint #FarmTour 🌱

The #EcoFuture team visited #ReallaborKastanienhof (uni-tuebingen.de/universitaet...) and #Kleinhohenheim agricultural experiment station (oeko.uni-hohenheim.de/en/66107) to officially launch the project.

💡 Stay tuned for updates and follow our journey!

Der Emissionshandel sollte die marktwirtschaftliche Lösung der Klimakrise sein - und sie funktioniert. Nun soll Lobbydruck all die Firmen bestrafen, die entsprechend investiert haben, und die Versager belohnen.
Das darf nicht wahr sein 🤯!

Geplante Lockerungen der EU: Emissionshandel hat als Klimaschutzinstrument versagt
Ökonomen schwärmten immer vom Emissionshandel als kapitalismusfreundliche Lösung für den Klimawandel. Nun ist klar: Das hat nicht funktioniert.

Soil microbes grow, respire, die. Because their biomass eventually becomes necromass, and necromass can be stabilized in soil, growth rate emerges as a powerful predictor of soil carbon: www.nature.com/articles/s41...
Microbial growth rate is a stronger predictor of soil organic carbon than carbon use efficiency - Nature Ecology & Evolution
Microbial carbon use efficiency is a strong predictor of soil organic carbon stocks. Here the authors reveal that the microbial growth rate is a more reliable and informative predictor, and that model...

New Nature Ecology & Evolution paper out today @natecoevo.nature.com!

We find that models deviate from observations in the weighting of important soil processes. This mismatch has important implications for developing soil carbon models and improving predictions of soil carbon fate in the future 🌍

Land use change can affect both species diversity and evolution within species🌍🐿️

We find that evolutionary response to land use change can be masked in the field by phenotypic plasticity, revealing hidden adaptation to global change👇️

The reason we suddenly stopped hearing about the revolution in Iran is because the regime has enforced a blackout, cutting the country off from the rest of the world.

The reality is that innocent Persians are being massacred by the thousands right now and nobody knows it. 😔
