Soil microbiomes play a crucial role in carbon sequestration, significantly impacting the global carbon cycle. The activity of microorganisms helps to capture and store carbon in soil, reducing ...

Brands across the fashion spectrum are betting on regenerative agriculture to help them meet sustainability targets, but ...

A recent study reveals an unexpected link between manganese -- a naturally occurring mineral -- and increased carbon emissions from high-latitude boreal forests. The study uncovers how manganese ...

Agricultural systems in tropical regions—including Sub-Saharan Africa, Latin America, Southeast Asia, and the Pacific—stand at the frontline of global ...

Researchers from the Institute of Applied Ecology (IAE) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) have uncovered how soil food webs promote the transformation and storage of photosynthetic carbon in ...

A new global analysis reveals that tiny soil microbes play a decisive role in determining whether biochar can effectively lock carbon into ...

In a comment published in Nature Climate Change, Mark Bradford, the E.H. Harriman Professor of Soils and Ecosystem Ecology, and Yale School of the Environment research scientists Sara Kuebbing and ...

Scientists are highlighting biochar, a carbon-rich material produced from biomass, as a promising solution to help soils store carbon and reduce greenhouse gas emissions, offering new hope in global ...

Organic carbon decomposition in soil varies significantly and in regional patterns, driven in part by factors such as soil minerals and microbial properties that have been underrepresented in carbon ...

Discussions often focus on which crops can increase soil carbon stocks. Soil organic matter contributes to many aspects of soil function, including soil quality, biomass yield, water quality, nutrient ...
