Your #DBG2025 Icebreaker Service Team of the Geo-Biosphere Interactions Group #GBI of @uni_tue is seriously practicing all required services (having fun doing so). We will be best prepared to welcome all DBG members at the GUZ on 14th of Sept. Looking forward to 🥗🌭🥨🍻🥂

These are really big problems of many papers in soil science!
As a peer reviewer and research mentor, I’ve come across a troubling pattern, one that undermines even the most sophisticated research efforts in soil science: > Many studies, even from advanced labs, fail at the foundation: experimental design and statistical rigour.

Very interesting paper comparing importance of P and N for SOM and MAOM formation! Congrats to the team.
Great work from Hannah Lieberman arguing soil P is as or more important than N in determining MAOM accumulation and its sensitivity to global change! dx.doi.org/10.1111/gcb.70…

I love microbes - but not all #soil processes are microbial, not even biotic. Check out the addition to our previous ferrous wheel story (tinyurl.com/26j2whpk) published in J. Environ. Manag. tinyurl.com/ympthbv3. Abiotic #nitrogen fixation is central for #volcanic soils.
