Researchers from the Institute of Applied Ecology (IAE) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) have uncovered how soil food ...

Soil stores more carbon than Earth's atmosphere and plants combined, which makes the speed of soil carbon's decomposition an important variable in models used to predict changes to our climate.

Researchers are using soil microbe DNA to model how they function and use carbon, helping to better predict and address climate change. A recent study led by a team at the Lawrence Berkeley National ...
