++ biodiversity in soil, but its rarely included in biodiv. conservation convos - why? Partly cause it's really hard to measure! New Calif Food and Ag report outlines framework for selecting soil biodiv. indicators including stakeholder feedback + expert opinion tinyurl.com/2e5z5rt4
Fantastic working with the team carbonplan (esp. @FreyaChay) - as well as Eric Slessarev and Iris Holzer – on this new tool describing which methods will help to quantify net carbon removal from enhanced rock weathering.
So awesome to collaborate with @FreyaChay, Noah Sokol & Eric Slessarev to sort through the complexities of enhanced weathering MRV 🪨📈
Such a privilege to have been part of the Soils & Biogeochemistry Grad Group - UC Davis community these past 6 years. And so excited for new soils adventures UC Santa Barbara! 🪨🍃💧
In the first field study of its kind, published in IOP Environment, UC Davis scientist Iris Holzer in Benjamin Z Houlton 🌍 lab, found that crushed volcanic rock added to cropland stored #carbon in the soil even during an extreme drought in California. cals.cornell.edu/news/2023/10/a…
A fun afternoon UC Davis Arboretum and Public Garden teaching nursery where SBG students and alumni co-taught the Climate-Ready Gardening outreach program w/Ellen Zagory. Today’s focus: #biodiversity! Trainees got their hands dirty w/a soil characterization demo and a biodiversity scavenger hunt.
I’m hiring a soil biogeochemistry postdoc Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory to study soil-based strategies for carbon removal in the field, esp. interactions between soil organic C cycling and enhanced weathering. Work with an amazing, collaborative team! Salary: $108K/yr. jobs.smartrecruiters.com/LLNL/374399000…
Mark Lundy & Kalyn Taylor just published a fascinating paper comparing no-till annual #wheat, tilled annual wheat & perennial wheatgrass in Calif: No-till is best for soil health AND for solid yield! plantsciences.ucdavis.edu/news/Lundy-no-… #1intheWorldPlantSciences #conservationtillage
FI is happy to offer one $2000 Travel Award for a marginalized or historically excluded student to attend a conference, workshop, or training opportunity in a natural sciences field. Apply: fieldinclusive.org/student-travel… Note: Applications from Non-U.S. institutions are not eligible.
Interested in designing your own 2-3 year postdoc in agroecology, soil health, and crop-livestock integration in Chile? I am seeking candidates to sponsor for the Chilean Fondecyt Postdoctoral Fellowship, for details contact me by email and see investigacion.agronomia.uc.cl/contenido/post…
