According to British research, rising sea levels are accelerating the death of mangroves. A phenomenon that affects many coastal areas of the planet
A study highlights a possible side effect of combating air pollution: the reduction of carbon storage in the soil
The estimate, on a 30-year basis, is contained in a study involving American and Australian scientists: worldwide, spontaneous forest regeneration potentially affects more than 200 million hectares of land
According to Canadian research, alkaline soils especially favour the growth of the fungus, which damages plant tissue by interfering with water and nutrient uptake
A study in US shows how bioplastics can degrade in an acceptable timeframe and without harming the environment as long as they are disposed of properly
Despite incomplete data, some models can effectively predict the impact of climate on biodiversity and the spread of plant species in a natural area
Japanese researchers have identified a favourable bacterium that could be used as a biocontrol agent in rice crops as an alternative to chemical pesticides
A new device developed by a team of Lithuanian and Spanish researchers allows detection of the alteration produced by drought on certain key parameters of the plant’s physiological state
The reduction in crop yields following extreme weather events such as drought and heavy rain has been accurately quantified for the first time. Depending on the type of crop and the phenomenon, the decrease ranges between 13 and 36%.
The dispersion of rock dust in the soil is generally an effective way of storing carbon. But in acidic soils, according to an Australian study, this mechanism does not work
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.
