Do you want to measure, visualize, correct, and interpret #redoxpotentials in #soil? I have put down ressources on my personal website (created with #blogdown using #RStats 🥳)

My sincerely thanks to the fantastic team, sponsors and our great authors

[Kristof Dorau @DorauKristof]

Happy and proud of the great teamwork that went into this article and the output 🤩Plastics are an emerging new component that enters soils. We looked at sampling designs and gave recommendations for coherent polymer mass characterization.

A little teaser from our field site with 3 ha in size: More than 5 tons of soil were taken and homogenized in the field, 500 kg of it were treated in the lab, 173 individual samples, composed of nearly 1k split tube sampler drillings, and many more highlights

@Anlyse_this @UDcanr @ASU Congratulations 🎉 Very well deserved and all the best for the next steps!

[Kristof Dorau @DorauKristof]

@KeiluweitLab @IUSS_ORG Well done and deserved :)

[Kristof Dorau @DorauKristof]

@mrillig No problem at all and looking forward to the read :) By the way, I met @rosolinoingraff a couple of weeks ago and only heard good things about his time in Berlin and your mentoring!

[Kristof Dorau @DorauKristof]

@mrillig Unfortunately no access to the journal but do I get something wrong...0.67% w/w is not mg/kg as written in the GA. However, nice (or horrifying) forecast and well done

@MSchiedung @CarstenWMueller @k_witzgall @tumsoil @dfg_public @earth_shape @TUBerlin @GFZ_Potsdam @uchile @UAtacama Exactly the same came up in my mind. Incredibly informative/intuitive graphics. Congrats @k_witzgall and all involved

Early this week, we @SLM_WUR successfully hosted a vibrant symposium that delved into the fascinating world of microplastics. Many thanks to everyone who had joined us. 😀

[Kristof Dorau @DorauKristof]

Fantastic discussions about #microplastics in #soil in Wageningen...many thanks to the organizers for a well organized event.

[Kristof Dorau @DorauKristof]

A fantastic week of nice people and fruitful discussions comes to an end #setac #plastics #soil #maps

[Kristof Dorau @DorauKristof]

@tolivoto @YouTube Fantastic :) looking forward to test it. Thank you for your awesome work

[Kristof Dorau @DorauKristof]

@Philipp_Mauri Thank you. I agree... Scaling up from microsites towards larger scale in conjunction with other methods would be nice! We should sort this out with a Gilden ;)

[Kristof Dorau @DorauKristof]

Happy to share another study about #manganese and #iron #IRIS. Subtle differences in altitude (microrelief) had a profound impact on mineral transformation. Read here how we employed image analysis from IRIS films to construct #RedoxMaps

Many thanks to my co-authors and colleagues for support during this study. I highly recommend the fantastic #rayshader package by @tylermorganwall, which pimped the graphical abstract

[Kristof Dorau @DorauKristof]

We have also discussed benefits by IRIS (large reactive surface area) over classical redox electrodes more susceptible to small-scale soil heterogeneity.

@VincentFelde @HMWK_Hessen @jlugiessen Wow....das ist mal ein toller Preis und Anerkennung!!! Sehr gut gemacht und herzlichen Glückwunsch

[Kristof Dorau @DorauKristof]

@peth_lab @UFZ_de @Geoderma_Jrnl Congratulations to everybody involved🎉 very innovative (...and great job on the graphical abstract)!

[Kristof Dorau @DorauKristof]

@MelanieBergma18 @SchnepfUwe That's interesting!!! Thanks for sharing
