El jueves 4/12 hay unas interesantes Jornadas sobre el Día Mundial del Suelo en la Finca El Encín organizadas por IMIDRA @upm.es Fertinagro Biotech, donde daré una charla sobre ecología de suelos urbanos

📢📢📢 Stop by at ICA @csic.es on Nov 18th 12:00 if you are interested in farming systems and soil-based ecosystem services. Great seminar by Tim Bowles from @ucberkeleyofficial.bsky.social

Also on zoom (id 889 595 8992, code 388882)

Farewell pizza party for Xiang and Fatma, who have been working in the lab for 1 year and a couple of months each. Hope you all the best in your next steps!

A hidden global soil core 🧬

Across 10 crop wild progenitors, we found a small but abundant soil core microbiome

Where crops come from matters 🌍

Crop wild progenitors host soil communities shaped by native climate and soil

Very proud of my son on strike protesting against Israel genocide in Gaza

Also, Beatriz Jiménez started her PhD looking at soil carbon, microbial thermal acclimation & tradeoffs with GHG emissions in agroecosystems

Our AMF inoculation trial looks gorgeous, with 2 m maize plants already flowering. Looking forward to interesting results with @acampos-caliz.bsky.social @mvanderheijden.bsky.social Antonino Lambach & Valent BioSciences

If you are interested in working with us on climate change effects on soil/microbial/ecosystem ecology, please DM. We work on a range of systems from agricultural, natural and urban environments.

El próximo 12/02, con motivo del Día Internacional de la Mujer y la Niña en la Ciencia, el Comité de Igualdad del Instituto de Ciencias Agrarias del @csic.es ha preparado un evento muy interesante: El Efecto Matilda, con proyecciones de cortos, debate y mucho más!

Big welcome to Norah AlGhamdi, PhD student from KAUST University working with @ftmaestre.bsky.social on N₂O emissions in drylands. Norah will be learning different soil analyses during her stay at ICA @csic.es
