@mpalla.bsky.social
Scientist at Stockholm university. Trying to unravel interactions between soil respiration, climatic drivers, functional diversity, and different management practices in the #HoliSoils project. Also navigating #momademia. Opinions are my own (she/her/hers)
Reminder! The #HoliSoils webinar on the integration of microbial processes into SOC models starts today at 2 pm CEST.
🔬 Microbial communities are the main drivers of #soil carbon decomposition, but modelling their interactions remains a major challenge!

Elisa found that respiration rates scale as the product of organic carbon and microbial biomass, with minimal effects of microbial diversity. This is a cool result, supporting the use of nonlinear kinetics to interpret data at small scales (lab incubation). Great @holisoils.bsky.social team effort!

Scientific identity crisis: "So, what do you do?" A simple question, but I struggle to answer after changing fields several times. Am I a vegetation modeller? Soil modeller? Does that then make me a land surface modeller? But my postdoc isn't like that, I'm analysing soil respiration datasets (1/2)
