I guess by entering it into the scientific discourse. And yes, I'm sure some of this is hit or miss, but it is also how progress happens.
Enjoyed the fall colors in the Berlin Botanical Garden today...
Yes, that is literally what the article also talks about: the mix is important. 😀
Excellent fodder for my creativity course for undergrads:

Conventional and biodegradable agricultural microplastics: effects on soil properties and microbial functions across a European pedoclimatic gradient
Agricultural plastics like mulching films may become a major source of microplastic (MP) soil contamination during their degradation and fragmentation…

How many really good ideas are you going to have? Those are not a dime a dozen….
Do you keep track of how and when you had them? And how it turned out to be good idea (did that become apparent only later or was it clear right away)?

Very happy that two PhD students successfully defended their dissertations today!
Congratulations to Yanjie Zhu and to Yaqi Xu for a job very well done!!! 🍾🥳

Harvest of the Berlin global change experiment complete. Some rain in the beginning, but then with the help of a lot of lab members we got it finished! 😅

(S+) Umweltschutz: Wie der Verlust des Bodens unseren Planeten bedroht - Auszug aus »Mutter Erde«
Menschliche Eingriffe haben mehr als ein Drittel aller Landflächen bereits verletzt oder sogar zerstört. Doch wir können nur überleben, wenn wir den Boden und seine geheimnisvollen Bewohner erhalten.

Urban soils and their biodiversity: sealed surfaces
What’s under sealed surfaces (parking lots, buildings, roads) in the city? How much life is in that soil? Just wondering about the not-so-obvious aspects of urban soils
What do you think?

What about sealed surfaces in the city? Are they mostly 'dead'?
