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 ...

Unique soils data from long-term experiments, stretching back to the middle of the nineteenth century, confirm the practical implausibility of burying carbon in the ground to halt climate change, an ...

Transient redox conditions are known to strongly influence the behavior of mercury in natural environments, but the importance of soil redox status in controlling mercury fate and transport in ...

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 ...

What is needed for plants to grow? How might you select which plants would be best to reforest a desert? How long do you think it might take to go from a desert to a forest? What positive and negative ...
