Organic matter associated with reactive minerals (#MAOM) is often assumed to be the most persistence soil #carbon pool. Here we introduce a new mechanistic framework for the vulnerability of this vast #carbon reservoir to disruption in the #rhizosphere. https://t.co/IiNflLfqvC

's new paper in @EnvSciTech revealed how different exudates released along growing roots create functionally distinct soil microenvironments that evolve over time! Thx team: @ReneBoiteau
@EMSLscience @CardonZG!

New Paper Alert🚨! Is soil C turnover about energy or kinetics? Exciting work by @CareAboutSoils highlights how energetic vs enzymatic constraints impact microbial decomposition over season cycles. Thx to collaborators @StanfordSoils @EMSLscience etc.https://t.co/HhRFcv3V8z

This has to be one of the most humble experiments ever! Any guesses what's dissolving in the beaker? (it's not gold)

Very proud and honoured to receive the PM Huang award (@IUSS_ORG), and looking forward to talking microbes, minerals and organic matter with everyone at ISMOM 2024 in Japan! 🦠🔬🔶🍀🇯🇵

[Rota Wagai @RotaWagai]

ISMOM 2024 update:
P.M. Huang Prize is awarded to Marco Keiluweit (Université de Lausanne, Switzerland).
Congratulations, Marco! @KeiluweitLab
He joins ISMOM and his award talk is planned on the last day!

Check out this cool new paper on anoxic microsites in ag soils by @soil_tycoon!

[Emily Lacroix @soil_tycoon]

Our new paper *Microbial Proxies for Anoxic Microsites Vary with Management and Partially Explain Soil Carbon Concentration* is now published and open access!

DM me if you want to hear about how many times it was rejected🙃...

Expeditions can be hard to maneuver as a mother & scientist.

Intense & exciting to have my essay published in @nytimes exploring how Expeditions can be an Academic Act of Defiance
