Heating alone won’t drive soil microbes to release more carbon dioxide — they need added carbon and nutrients to thrive. This finding challenges assumptions about how climate warming influences soil ...

In this experiment, we're going to find out how quickly water drains through three different types of soil: one heavy with sand, a potting soil, and soil heavy with clay. We're joined by BASF employee ...

Ecologists have measured plant-soil feedbacks for six perennial prairie grass species in a short-term greenhouse study, and say their findings do not match outcomes observed in long-term experiment ...

In an era marked by increasing wildfire frequencies and widespread agricultural use of biochar, the accumulation of biochar ...

Life's capacity to survive in simulated lunar and Martian soils has been explored in two papers published in Scientific Reports. Treating simulated lunar soil with both symbiotic fungi and ...
