We need a culture and systematic infrastructures to encourage raw data publication (not only in soil ecology).
In the context of the 🇩🇪 biodiversity assessment (Faktencheck Artenvielfalt) my soil ecology colleagues analyzed ~1250 time series datasets on var soil organisms. Only 100 (sic!) of them were derived from the literature. All the rest were unpublished datasets uncovered from desk drawers and archives.

Timely topic, as the future of major EU restoration grants is uncertain: LIFE+ might be cancelled, the second GAP pillar is shaking... private investments in restoration will gain relevance.

Because better data = better restoration decisions.

🌍 Where in Europe are peatlands used for agriculture?
Just look at this 🗺️👉 greifswaldmoor.de/files/images... 🔗
Understanding where and how peatlands are used is key to understand opportunities for land use change and wet alternatives like paludiculture 🌱💧

Der/die Nutzer(in) mit dem Namen Akrotelm ist auf einer Mission: die großflächige Entwässerung der Landschaft zurückzudrehen. Es wird noch ein bisschen dauern, aber die Erkenntnis wird sich durchsetzen.
Künstliche #Entwässerung durch Gräben und Drainagen verstärkt die Einträge von Nitrat in unsere Gewässer.

...und hier nun dargestellt die Nitrateinträge über Drainagen und Entwässerungsgräben in die Oberflächengewässer.
Beachtet die Legende: Weite Teile des Bundeslandes sind hellgrün oder gelb dargestellt.
👉 das heißt, das dort 25-75kg N pro Jahr und Hektar aus den Äckern & Wiesen rausperlen 🤯
