The world's longest-running soil warming experiment has revealed an unexpected climate concern. After nearly four decades, ...

The cause-effect sequence or "feedback" between plants and their soil microbial communities plays an important role in structuring plant communities. To predict this synergistic coexistence, ...

When farmland is returned to the wild, it shows a striking ability to hold onto the carbon that built up in farm soils over time, retaining this stock for 30 years or more, a unique, long-term study ...

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 ...

Tropical forests exchange more CO2 with the atmosphere than any other terrestrial biome, meaning that even a relatively small shift in the balance of carbon uptake and release there could have a big ...

New research challenges this assumption, revealing that buoyant microplastics can be significantly transported deep into the soil profile under conditions mimicking rainfall or irrigation. The study ...

Ecopetrol (NYSE: EC) is trialing an innovative use for petroleum coke, a carbon-rich refining byproduct, to enhance soil fertility in forest ecosystems as part of its broader decarbonization and ...
