Forest soil microbes use simple C compounds to generate energy while more complex ones are used for building biomass. Less complex biomass components are used by many - including molds and bacterial opportunists, complex ones by more efficient decomposers https://t.co/hlCXsnBKzC

So honored and proud to be advising a new #GilliamFellow, @AuraAlonsoRodz! Aura is working to understand what confers resilience of tropical species and farmers alike in the face of hurricanes. Looking forward to learning along with her and all Gilliam Fellows and mentors.
Ever tried to pull together data from multiple published sources? Wondered how other folks in soils did it? We did too! Todd-Brown etal 2022 https://t.co/N4cOj3ZYqI 1/N
Have you ever wondered how tropical forests will be affected by higher temperatures and more extreme climatic events like hurricanes and droughts? Then you should check out our new @ForestWarming publication!

What did we see upon 1st touching bottom, at 10,900+m depth w/in #ChallengerDeep? A BEER BOTTLE! 😫 Further evidence that we MUST as humanity do BETTER by the ocean and for the health of habitats that we ourselves share & ultimately depend on!!! #ThereIsNoPlanetB#DeeperSeaDawn
Gadgil effect of shrub removals: increasing abundance of ericaceous shrubs and ericoids contributes to OM accumulation, not only through necromass accumulation, but also through impairment of decomposition processes due to increasing nutrient limitation https://t.co/qPqHwxeHdN
Freshly published! He we present spatial-temporal dynamics of soil microbial biomass carbon. This project has been a massive endeavor for us, and I am so happy this is finally out. Hope you enjoy the read. 🦠🌍⏲️😊 #soilhealth#soilecology
