Soil Infrastructures

@EPSRC @lwec_uk funded fellowship @DrJessDavies examining the capacity and resilience of soil as a critical infrastructure providing #food, #water and #carbon

[Soil Infrastructures @SoilInf]

Soil = a vital infrastructure for people, business & the planet. Let's build the evidence base and networks for sustaining & enhancing it

[UN Biodiversity @UNBiodiversity]

Earth's natural carbon sinks are critical for slowing down #ClimateChange.🌿🌳🌏

In fact, soil contains more carbon than you might have imagined! 🪱

A @visualcap infographic shows how much carbon is stored in different ecosystems.

[Jess Davies @ProfJessDavies]

Congratulations to @Roisin_OR on passing her viva! 🎉🎉🎉
It's been fantastic learning about urban soil ecosystem services & the world beneath the pavements with you as part of @EPSRC @SoilInf project #NewDrOfUrbanSealedSoilsOnTheBlock

[Dan Evans @DanEvansol]

Are you an Early Career Researcher #ECR working on #soil erosion?

We invite you to present your #research at the @EU_ScienceHub #EUSO Soil Erosion Workshop, 20-22 June 2022.

Abstracts to Dan Evans ([email protected]) by 29 May

Happy #WomenScienceDay from Sustainable Soils Group @LancsUniLEC
We're packed with amazing women studying everything from urban undergrounds to alpine tops, farms to freshwaters, plant traits to plastics in lab field & models

[Dan Evans @DanEvansol]

Great to see this @POST_UK briefing on restoring #agriculture #soil and particularly delighted to see our #SoilLifespan paper appearing here.

🧵1/5 Excited about #phosphatase enzymes and their role in organic P cycling? Check out our new paper: A meta-analysis of phosphatase activity in agricultural settings in response to phosphorus deficiency in @SoilBiolBiochem https://t.co/tDgwOjEE1l #Phosphorus #OpenAccess

[Lancaster Environment Centre @LancsUniLEC]

#Soils provide multiple services to society: supporting food production, regulating global water and nutrient cycles, & sequestering CO2.

[Jess Davies @ProfJessDavies]

I made a little web page today: everything you wanted to know about our carbon, nitrogen & phosphorus plant-soil model but were too afraid to ask! https://t.co/mJtlOAMewx
We will be improving it, but nice to capture the basics on a page

[Roisin O'Riordan @Roisin_OR]

Our paper is out in
@EGU_SOILjournal! We looked at what happens to #soil #carbon & nitrogen when soils are sealed by roads and pavements #UrbanSoil #cities

[Jess Davies @ProfJessDavies]

Check out our new Soils in Planning & Construction Task Force - public-private partnership focused on integrating soils into planning & construction https://t.co/FVVO7XALOY
@Roisin_OR @John_Quinton @CornwallCouncil @LancasterCC @FarrerHuxley @jtp_placemaking with @EPSRC support

[Soil Infrastructures @SoilInf]

Fantastic summary of some of @torijanes soil research discoveries through her time with us at @SoilInf and @EnsembleLancs projects - long may the thread of discovery and entanglement of disciplines continue! #EntangledFestival

[Tori Bassett @torijanes]

Ahead of the #EntangledFestival podcast 'Inspiring soil care and disentangling complexity' tomorrow, here's a sneak peak of some of the #soils research we've been doing as part of the @EPSRC @lwec_uk projects @EnsembleLancs and @SoilInf

[Tori Bassett @torijanes]

Change in #carbon storage in the East of England and the importance of a regional perspective for policy. Check out our new paper out today - Mapping regional impacts of agricultural expansion on terrestrial carbon storage. Available #OpenAccess https://t.co/zoQNvsw2cr @RSRS_OA

[Jess Davies @ProfJessDavies]

Fun to think about the future of our urban soils and spaces and how we could use them to tackle climate change. Thanks to @UKRI_News #NetZero

[Chris Taylor @Carbon_Chris95]

*NEW SCIENCE ALERT*

Our new paper is out now in @EGU_BioGeo:

‘Organic phosphorus cycling may control grassland responses to nitrogen deposition: a long-term field manipulation and modelling study’

[Soil Infrastructures @SoilInf]

Join fab @SoilInf @EnsembleLancs researcher Tori Janes Bassett to hear about #Soils & #DataScience (& chocolate!) today 🍫
@torijanes @ProfJessDavies @dsilancaster @LancsUniLEC

[Tori Bassett @torijanes]

How is #DataScience like a box of chocolates? Join us tomorrow at the @dsilancaster seminar to find out.

https://t.co/Gfjp7jPnxz

If you wish to bring me chocolate I'd be happy to discuss further...

[Tori Bassett @torijanes]

Looking forward to Fab #Phosphorus Friday in biogeoscience session BG6 at #vEGU21.

I'll be talking about #phosphatase enzymes and modelling P cycles in plant-soil systems. Our display materials can be viewed now here https://t.co/g44j4g2ywG

[Jess Davies @ProfJessDavies]

Soil made up an incredible 55% of material sent to landfill in the UK in 2016!
Great news piece on why we need to stop treating urban soil like dirt from @Roisin_OR on her @soilinf research with @John_Quinton @cbimagination @ProfJessDavies @LancsUniLEC
https://t.co/E8xUolNzkW

[Jess Davies @ProfJessDavies]

Check out @Carbon_Chris95' s great carbon, nitrogen and phosphorus modelling work at the fascinating long term experimental grasslands at Wardlow @GarethPhoenix

[Soil Infrastructures @SoilInf]

How do we bring diverse data together to estimate environmental risks? New paper from our @EPSRC big sister project @EnsembleLancs

[Ensemble Team @EnsembleLancs]

How can we bring data together from structured and unstructured sources? Check out our new paper looking at a semantic approach to enable data integration for the domain of flood risk management. https://t.co/UkZfnB8BF9
