New paper alert. A consensus view (amongst a bunch of researchers in this space) on what we know and need to know to effectively manage croplands for climate benefits led by @eeoldfield & @JM_Lavallee tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10…

Hey Twitter- I'm getting close to wrapping things up! I'll be defending my PhD work on June 20th, at 9 AM MT. I'll talk about SOM fractionation methods, MAOM nitrogen, yield stability, PyOM persistence, and everything in between. Hope y'all can tune in-- DM me for a Teams link!

I'll be defending my PhD this Friday at 9a MT! Scan the QR for a Teams link. I'll be talking all about Regen Ag, SOM, and soil critters. Would love for you to tune in!

Psyched this paper is now out in the world! Got together with an amazing expert group to review SOM conceptual frameworks. The inspiration for this work was to help PhD student Katie that had little background in SOM prep for prelims. Hope its helpful! dx.doi.org/10.1029/2023JG…

We (me,@JM_Lavallee, Francesca Cotrufo, @brunobasso1 , and Will Brinton) have a new paper out today in @EGU_SOILjournal We looked how SOM fractions might influence crop yield stability. The results were surprising (little 🧵). soil.copernicus.org/articles/10/30…


Good stuff

How should we *really* be fractionating soils to get truly distinct pools which inform + reflect our mechanistic understanding? Read @samleuthold's awesome new paper, combining chemical, spectral, and isotopic evidence to answer this question! FWIW - density is necessary 🫢

Our (me, @JM_Lavallee, Michelle Haddix, and Francesca Cotrufo) new paper thinking about SOM fractionation methods is out (OA!) in @Geoderma_Jrnl today! (Short 🧵) authors.elsevier.com/sd/article/S00…

🚨 Our new paper is out!! 🚨 We developed a conceptual framework to align understanding on the impact of #grazing on soil organic #carbon using a combined lens of plant ecophysiology + soil biogeochemistry & a REAL description of grazing management 🐂 onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/gc…


Cool.

I'm very happy to share new article from @efforts_crc990 published in @Nature! We show that rainforest transformation leads to vast energetic and functional changes in food webs, from soils to canopies. Fantastic teamwork of our international team! rdcu.be/dyDzF

What’s holding back soil carbon increases under regenerative management? Does MAOC not respond b/c soils are saturated? Does POC response take off with C inputs? In short, no! Happy to share this paper from my postdoc w great group of co-authors: tinyurl.com/yn94mrxp A 🧵

So excited to share this work on emerging controls of soil stoichiometry that I led with a really wonderful group of scientists! We review empirical evidence for soil C:N controls and their representation in models. Take a gander ⬇️ doi.org/10.1016/j.soil…

So great to see this out! Nice work

Super excited that this is out for review and open discussion. It feels like a culmination of a lot of the stuff I’ve been thinking about the last 5 (😳) years. Looking forward to hearing the communities thoughts on what we’ve put together here.

Nice article about why carbon offsets aren't working and how they can be improved. I am a little disappointed they left out soil-based solutions. nature.com/articles/d4158…

Need more evidence for the importance of fractionating SOM? Check out our new article on responses of SOM & its fractions to 30 (!) yrs of increased precip TLDR: Despite no response of bulk C and N, we found changes in SOM fractions & their drivers... 🧵 authors.elsevier.com/a/1hbxr8g13XeZV


Great stuff!

Very pleased to share our latest paper! We hope you find this as a useful guide when working to assess soil biological health @TvishaMartin98 sciencedirect.com/science/articl…
