Check out new OA paper led by @SoilLife, @samaddars, and I 🌾 Main takeaway — depth matters! Annual wheat vs. #Kernza stored carbon at different depths in the soil profile & hosted distinct soil fungal communities primarily in the rhizosphere & topsoil. doi.org/10.1016/j.soilbio.20…

New OA pub led by @JustinDernerWY, @soil_institute, & I🌱Multidecadal grazing intensity experiments in CO & WY show location/climate, not grazing, drove soil C outcomes. We also found inconsistent responses to grazing among & within soil health indicators: doi.org/10.1016/j.agee.2025.…

New OA pub✨🌾Mark Lundy, @tsnelsen, @SoilLife, & I quantified yield, soil microbial biomass, & soil carbon in no-till wheat, tilled wheat, & #Kernza in CA. We learned that plant vigor & soil disturbance largely underpinned soil microbe & soil C outcomes. doi.org/10.1016/j.still.2023…

Does synthetic nitrogen fertilizer burn up soil organic matter? Multiple studies say NO. N fertilizer actually slows loss of old soil organic matter and increases microbial biomass and new soil organic matter. New from @jwadeexperience and I: csanr.wsu.edu/nitrogen-ferti…

So awesome to collaborate with @FreyaChay, @NoahSokol & @ESlessarev to sort through the complexities of enhanced weathering MRV 🪨📈
There are good reasons to be excited about harnessing rock weathering to remove CO2 from the atmosphere. But demonstrating that enhanced weathering actually works is surprisingly tricky. We're releasing a new tool that we hope can help. carbonplan.org/research/ew-q…

++ biodiversity in soil, but its rarely included in biodiv. conservation convos - why? Partly cause it's really hard to measure! New @CDFAnews report outlines framework for selecting soil biodiv. indicators including stakeholder feedback + expert opinion tinyurl.com/2e5z5rt4

New paper! A collaboration between myself, Dani Gelardi and Chad Kruger looking at strengths and weaknesses of policies around soil carbon. Main takeaway? We need policies that recognize that + soil C is also about cobenefits, not just CC mitigation! tinyurl.com/3f9hwpja
