Proud to be part of this global synthesis shedding light on POC and MAOC losses with climate change @csic.es www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Global hotspots of particulate organic carbon losses under climate change - Nature Communications

High-latitude soils are future soil organic carbon loss hotspots, with losses dominated by particulate organic carbon (POC). The fraction of POC in total SOC (fPOC) is a key indicator, emphasizing the...

Why is the European forest carbon sink declining? How science can help reversing this trend? A perspective paper in Nature discusses these questions, highlighting the importance to better monitor forest resources and their resilience. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Securing the forest carbon sink for the European Union’s climate ambition - Nature

Actionable research recommendations are outlined to improve the monitoring and modelling of forest resources and their carbon sink, and to better inform forest management decisions and the European Gr...

Agricultural practices to increase SOC are often evaluated in isolation...what about their synergistic effect...🤔🤔🤔 Here a systematic review of long-term experiments!!! link.springer.com/article/10.1...

Synergistic effects of multiple “good agricultural practices” for promoting organic carbon in soils: A systematic review of long-term experiments - Ambio

Loss of soil organic carbon (SOC) from farmland is a key threat to the capacity of soils to provide ecosystem services and exacerbates climate change. In alignment with a published protocol, we conduc...

41-72.7 Billion Euros💶is the estimated cost of soil degradation in 🇪🇺(erosion, carbon & nutrient loss, compaction, land take) 🌍. Can ⬆️increase up to 140 billion if contamination🐈‍⬛, health issues and loss of biodiversity 🦟🪲🐛taken into account. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...

A Soil Monitoring Law for Europe

Over 60% of European soils are unhealthy, costing the European Union €40.9–72.7 billion annually. This figure can rise to €140 billion if all degradation processes are included. Soil degradation wors...

Check it out a new paper on projected land GHG emissions and change in diet in Denmark. I nice collaboration between @ec.europa.eu and @aarhusuni.bsky.social www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

How do diet shifts affect the greenhouse gas balance of agricultural soils? Denmark as a case study

Current food systems account for approximately 30 % of anthropogenic greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions; therefore, consumers' dietary preferences can hav…

A brand new 2025 paper on the response of different SOC fractions to warming in abandoned croplands. www.nature.com/articles/s41... I am grateful to the scientists at Beijing Normal University for the invitation to collaborate!!!

Short-term warming supports mineral-associated carbon accrual in abandoned croplands - Nature Communications

Natural recovery generally benefits soil organic carbon (SOC) accrual in abandoned croplands, but the impact of warming on SOC in this ecosystem is unclear. Here, the authors showed that warming enhan...

"We estimate that less than 16% of the carbon credits issued to the investigated projects constitute real emission reductions" 😮‍🤬!! "Carbon crediting mechanisms need to be reformed fundamentally to meaningfully contribute to climate change mitigation". www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Systematic assessment of the achieved emission reductions of carbon crediting projects - Nature Communications

Carbon markets are key in climate strategies, but only 16% of carbon credits represent real emission reductions, based on a study of 2,346 projects. Reforms are needed to improve the effectiveness of ...
