Understanding climate change from a global analysis of city analogues
Combating climate change requires unified action across all sectors of society. However, this collective action is precluded by the ‘consensus gap’ between scientific knowledge and public opinion. Her...

Why does this matter?
These changes indicate soil degradation, potentially reducing the soil’s resilience to future climate change stressors like droughts, heatwaves or heavy rainfall.

Key findings: 👇
🔹 Longer dry/wet periods reduced soil aggregate stability.
🔹 Water retention and infiltration declined.
🔹 Bulk density increased, making soil more compact.
🔹 Soil water repellency (SWR) changed depending on how the plants did.

With climate change, precipitation regimes are becoming more persistent—longer dry periods are alternating with longer wet periods. We tested how this affects soil in a 16-month grassland mesocosm experiment.
