Understanding climate warming impacts on carbon release from the tundra
Understanding climate warming impacts on carbon release from the tundra Open-top chambers (OTCs) in Latnjajaure, Sweden, provide a controlled environment to study simulated warming of the tundra ecosystem. Credit: Sybryn Maes The warming climate shifts the dynamics of tundra environments and makes them release trapped carbon, according to a new study published in Nature. These changes could transform […]

Managing plant surplus carbon to generate soil organic matter in regenerative agriculture
Managing plant surplus carbon to generate soil organic matter in regenerative agriculture Soil degradation is a global problem. A third of the planet’s land is already severely degraded, and soil is being degraded at a speed that threatens the health of the planet and the civilizations that depend on it (Whitmee et al. 2015). Depletion […]
