To upcoming scholars in #EnvironmentalSciences from the #CongoBasin and neighboring regions. Check out this interesting set of fully funded MSc and PhD scholarship options from our colleagues from the Congo Basin Science Initiative: congobasinscience.net/schola…
Long in the making, but finally there: Our new article in @NatRevEarthEnv where we present our views on the important role of #soilformation & #landscapecomplexity for understanding #soilcarbon cycling across scales. rdcu.be/d5rAC

Another new position: We are looking for someone to help us with the integration of several new research projects as a group manager. Interested? Please check this out: jobs.ethz.ch/job/view/9877?m…
The add is unfortunately in German only, but I hope DeepL can help you all with this
We are hiring ! If you have an interest in PhD projects on #soilbiogeochemistry with exciting field and lab for either alpine environments under changing climate or enhanced weathering in tropical cropland, check out:

Coming back from one of the most rewarding activities of my career so far: Our first Summer School on TropicalSoil and Forest Assessment Techniques in Fort Portal, Uganda! Participants and Lecturers from all over Europe and East Africa. tropires.org/ Some impressions
ALT Soil description and sampling
ALT Measuring soil properties with NIR spectroscopy
ALT Forest Biomass Assessment
ALT Explaining land use patterns in dependency of Geology and Soil properties
New work that I find super interesting from our @ETH_SoilRes Daniel Wasner in @GlobalChangeBio:
Crucial to consider Environment AND microbial community composition in macroscale soil organic carbon dynamics as both explain different (decoupled) parts of the #soil C Cycle!
Forgot the link! onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…

Our manuscript on interactions btw. enhanced weathering and soil C is out in @JBiogeochem: 'Reduced accrual of mineral-associated organic matter after two years of enhanced rock weathering in cropland soils, though no net losses of soil organic carbon.'

Soil pit digging and greenhouse gas sampling in the #Arctic #tundra never looked this good! ☀️ #ArcticGreening
ALT PhD students Moritz Mainka (he/him) and Alina Widmer (she/her) standing next to a soil pit together with Prof. Dr. Sebastian Dötterl (he/him).
ALT PhD student Alina Widmer (she/her) taking greenhouse gas samples on a portable gas analyzer.

While grain exports from Ukraine are in the news a lot, I felt that the importance of #soil itself is a pretty neglected part with potential wide reaching consequences of the #UkraineRussiaWar for Europe and the world and tried to express my views on that here.
The war in #Ukraine is also a war for #Soil. Sebastian Dötterl, Professor for Soil Resources at ETH Zurich explains what makes Ukrainian soil so valuable and why it will become even more geopolitically significant. 🇺🇦 brnw.ch/21wLd9p @SebDoetterl @usys_ethzh
New paper out in GBC by Daniel Wasner from @ETH_SoilRes on the changing importance of major soil C fractions for #soilcarbon storage along pegenetic and geoclimatic gradients. Microaggregates matter, in particular in high SOC and more developed soils!

Interested in how the relationship and controls of #soilorganiccarbon abundance and persistence vary across the globe and its pedoclimatic zones? Then check out our new paper in @GlobalChangeBio by @vonfromm_sophie et al. who compiled this amazing dataset: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…
New paper out by us from the @ETH_SAE_group and @ETH_SoilRes led by @Johansix6 on questions of soil C saturation and the ongoing debate of how to apply concepts to measure and interpret data in this regard from different soil systems!
After 10 years, again once a first author paper instigated by papers out there. It was great to work with the co-authors to elucidate again Soil Carbon Saturation. I hope you all enjoy reading the paper and find it insightful. @ETH_SAE_group @ethzWFSC
