A new study shows a natural solution to mitigate the effects of climate change such as extreme weather events. Researchers found that a diverse plant community acts as a buffer against fluctuations in soil temperature. This buffer, in turn, can have a decisive influence on important ecosystem processes.
Storing carbon in the soil can help to mitigate climate change. Soil organic matter bound to minerals in particular can store carbon in the long term. A new study shows that the formation of mineral-associated organic matter depends primarily on the type of mineral, but is also influenced by land use and cultivation intensity.
The future of the Amazon rainforest and its influence on the global climate were the focus of the visit by Frank-Walter Steinmeier and Steffi Lemke to the ATTO in Brazil. The President and the Federal Minister for the Environment visited the German-Brazilian research station on January 2nd.
Susan Trumbore receives AGU’s William Kaula Award, dedicated to “recognize an individual who has unselfishly served AGU’s publications program and the scientific community through extraordinary dedication and efforts”.
Dr. Henrik Hartmann, group leader at the MPI for Biogeochemistry, takes over the management of the newly founded Institute for Forest Conservation at the Julius Kühn Institute (JKI) in Quedlinburg. We are happy with him about his new area of responsibility and we will stay in touch.
