A taster of our new @FormasForsk project investigating the deep soil carbon consequences of converting to perennial agriculture

[Swedish Infrastructure for Ecosystem Science @fieldSITES]

Researchers from Lund University use SAFE infrastructure at SITES Lönnstorp Research Station to investigate the role agricultural practices have on deep soil carbon stocks. Read more about the project here: https://t.co/KGOFgbVoXm

There is still time to submit your abstract to our exciting #EGU23 session on Soil microbial responses to environmental stress and climate change, including invited speaker @CharlotteAlster. Join online or in Vienna! https://t.co/uMITFpOBIu

[Microbial Biogeochemistry in Lund @MicroBioGeo_LU]

#BES2022 is underway and @SaraWinterfeldt presented the premier of her work on how plant diversity impacts microbial resistance and resilience to drought.

It's the last lab meeting of the year which means it's time for...

[Microbial Biogeochemistry in Lund @MicroBioGeo_LU]

Last week, @Mingyue_Yuan_ took us on a scientific adventure from Abisko, to Alaska, to Australia. What limits microbial growth in these different environments? Mingyue will soon have the answer...

[Microbial Biogeochemistry in Lund @MicroBioGeo_LU]

On Friday, @AlbertBrangari was in the field taking the first DEEP soil cores for an assessment of the deep soil C consequences of perennial crops in agriculture, in our new project funded by @FormasForsk What a machine!

[Microbial Biogeochemistry in Lund @MicroBioGeo_LU]

@BruceHungate @MichaelaDippold All very interesting, we look forward to following your next steps! Given the likely differences in biochemical efficiency and CUE estimated via other means, is one more relevant for understanding the long-term fate of C in soils?

[Microbial Biogeochemistry in Lund @MicroBioGeo_LU]

This paper was the focus of today's lab meeting, leading to much discussion on how to estimate CUE. @MichaelaDippold and @BruceHungate, we were curious as to whether you could validate the CUE estimated via the 13C-isotopomers with e.g. 18O-H2O?

[EcossNAU @EcossNau]

New paper 🚨: In @ScienceAdvances, a team including Ecoss researchers Paul Dijkstra and @BruceHungate and led by Weichao Wu and @MichaelaDippold use mass spectrometry to show that within soil communities, carbon use efficiency varies among bacterial types. https://t.co/QniNITaMHD

[Mingyue Yuan @Mingyue_Yuan_]

Today I got my first ever research grant from the Royal Physiographic Society of Lund @Fysiografen1772! 🥳So excited to “annoy”more soil microbes in Arctic soil! 😈 (thats the reason why I can’t help opening it🍾though feel tired 😵 after Swedish course)

[Microbial Biogeochemistry in Lund @MicroBioGeo_LU]

And still more. Maria showed early results from her project comparing microbial moisture-related traits in grasslands and croplands, with a focus on depth! And @arellanocarlosg has been testing the relationship between fluorescence and bacterial biomass. All fueled by breakfast.

[Microbial Biogeochemistry in Lund @MicroBioGeo_LU]

Our weekly lab meeting is a great opportunity to catch up with what everyone has been thinking about. This week @Mingyue_Yuan_ has been exploring databases of plant traits, while Adrian continues his "search for principles" through equations...

[Microbial Biogeochemistry in Lund @MicroBioGeo_LU]

@AlbertBrangari made us think about oxygen dynamics during drying-rewetting down the soil profile, and @DanielTajmel spoke about temperature effects on SOC stocks...

Then Frank went out of the soil to water, showing how the termination of an algal bloom by viral infection could be seen in terms of gene expression, before @SaraWinterfeldt showed evidence for diversity conferring drought resistance to plants...
