By broadening our understanding of soil carbon dynamics to include both organic & inorganic carbon, says researchers including Benjamin Z Houlton 🌍 & Yiqi Luo, we can develop more effective strategies to preserve soil health, enhance ecosystem services, and mitigate climate change.

A new study in Science Magazine underscores the urgency of incorporating inorganic carbon into #climatechange mitigation strategies. 🧵science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

Size, distribution, and vulnerability of the global soil inorganic carbon | Science science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…, led by Yuanyuan Huang. Nearly one billion tons of SIC are lost to inland waters annually. Future losses will reduce global SIC by 23 billion tons over the next 30 years.

I like your point ‘ “The pace at which these strategies are being implemented is greatly outpacing the speed at which the science, knowledge necessary to understand their effectiveness is being generated,” said Kim Novick,’. Scientists need to come up with better solutions.

Changes in weather variability altered ecosystem carbon, nitrogen, and phosphorus stocks and cycling rates in a modeling.

A more mechanistic understanding of SOC formation & persistence needs leveraging potentials of empirical studies, process-based models, and big data. See our reply to Xiao et al. EarthArXiv doi.org/10.31223/X5X38V with Yiqi Luo Johannes Lehmann @ Cornell Stefano Manzoni Benjamin Z Houlton 🌍 and 👇

Globally widespread K limitation across terrestrial ecosystems, more so in regions with humid climates, acidic soils, or weathered soils.

Models can theoretically generate an array of patterns, as correctly argued by He et al., but yield realistic predictions only after they are constrained by data. It is the Bayesian framework used in our study that identified the most probable one among diverse mechanisms.

~50 times faster to accelerate CLIM5 spin-up by a semi-analytical spin-up (SASU) method. It becomes the fastest one, is applicable to most biogeochemical models, and enables computationally costly study, e.g., sensitivity analysis and data assimilation. agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1029/20…
