A study reveals how maize roots absorb CO₂ in the dark, acting as a backup carbon source when leaves can’t!
🔦Light, fertilizer, and CO₂ levels all play a role.
Root uptake kicks in when atmospheric CO₂ drops below ~400 ppm.

Our new study in Eastern Visayas shows:
✅ Natural mangrove stores the most carbon (461 Mg C/ha)
✅ But afforested sites are powerful climate allies too
🌍 Sequestration potential: ~1,433 Mg CO2/ha

A case for conservation + smart planting.

Some microplastics might be secretly reshaping how soil stores carbon.
New research shows that biodegradable microplastics (like PLA) don’t just break down—they actively reshape soil carbon by boosting microbial activity while speeding up the decay of plant-based carbon.

Think adding straw to soil is always good?
Straw incorporation increases Dissolved Organic Matter (DOM) & the mobile, plant-available fraction of Lead.
❄️Freeze-Thaw Cycles decrease this risky mobile Pb.
☀️💧Dry-Wet Cycles dramatically INCREASE mobile Pb.

New study of 413 subtropical forests reveals:
✅ Mosses = 1/4 of understory biomass
✅ Equal to 1% of TREE biomass (massive hidden carbon!)
✅ Cold conifer forests are moss super-stores
Protecting mosses = cost-effective carbon neutrality boost!
