New work that I find super interesting from our @ETH_SoilRes Daniel Wasner in @GlobalChangeBio: Crucial to consider Environment AND microbial community composition in macroscale soil organic carbon dynamics as both explain different (decoupled) parts of the #soil C Cycle!

A 2023 study on 14 biological products by @UDIrrigation did not find any yield benefit over a non-treated control for corn. Read more on the blog -> sites.udel.edu/agronomy/2024…

Reconnaissance field work at Parc Marin des Magroves, #DRC with #ICCN. Trying (!) to understand carbon dynamics of this wonderful ecosystem is one of the objectives of Elie Ngembo’s joint PhD: #UGENT , #ERAIFT , and #ULg .

Ecology meets Chemistry. Plants require adequate nutrient supply to produce (back to the future). Here testing in Yoko, DR Congo effects N, P and cations (Ca, Mg, K) addition. It’s not about N and P this time,…

Excellent North-South-South capacity building organised by @MarijnBauters. Two MSc students (left) from #UNIKIS in #DRC went for an internship to #Budongo in Uganda. Training by Isaac (far right, #UOB, #DRC and PhD from #UGENT ) and David (PhD student, at #UGENT, Makere, Uganda).
