Invasive species of earthworm affect microbial composition by altering overall soil conditions, Canadian research explains. Influencing nutrient and carbon cycling
Where waste was once burned, higher concentrations of lead are detected in the soil, says research from Duke University. With obvious health consequences
According to the British association, fossil-based nitrogen fertilizers are an obstacle to achieving Net Zero. In contrast, “there is a need to support nature-friendly approaches”
As a result of urbanization, soil nitrous oxide emissions increase 153%, according to a new study. At the same time, the ability to absorb methane is reduced
Drought progressively reduces the ability of soil to consume biogenic volatile organic compounds according to a German study. The emission intensifies after soil rewetting
The technological use of nanomaterials in soil stabilization, writes AZoNano journal, occurs with reduced environmental impact compared to the impact generated by the use of traditional techniques
A study from Texas quantified the average savings associated with reducing fertilizer use after soil testing. For a 1,000-acre U.S. farm, it exceeds $130,000 per year
Virginia Tech researchers will analyze erosion risk in the state’s solar installations. In the U.S., the problem is real. But several solutions are available
Researchers in New Zealand are testing a solution against fluoride pollution. The technique has made it possible to degrade per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) at the molecular level with 99.9 percent efficacy
The Kingdom plans to plant 50 to 100 million mangrove trees “in the coming years.” An initiative to protect biodiversity that once again highlights the key role of this plant species in mitigating climate and contributing to soil protection
It’s beneath our feet but we never think about its value. We tread on it, we mistreat it, but a healthy, fertile soil means life. It’s time to take care of the soil and each one of us can and must make a difference.
