I research soil ecology and the role of soil fauna in SOM dynamics in agricultural systems
Fort Collins, Colorado, USA
Joined December 2018
Excited to share our new Policy Analysis in the @SciPolJournal Winter Issue! With Helen Silver, @MeganMachmuller & Dr. Jane Zelikova, we explore how diversified ag systems impact soil carbon, soil health & yields. 🌱📈.Read it here 👉
Hot off the press! .#JSPG Volume 26, Issue 1 is LIVE. 12 open-access papers tackle climate resilience, digital infrastructure, health equity & national competitiveness. Read now ➡️ #SciPol #OpenAccess #SciencePolicy

Cool.
I'm very happy to share new article from @efforts_crc990 published in @Nature! We show that rainforest transformation leads to vast energetic and functional changes in food webs, from soils to canopies. Fantastic teamwork of our international team!.

So great to see this out! Nice work.
Super excited that this is out for review and open discussion. It feels like a culmination of a lot of the stuff I’ve been thinking about the last 5 (😳) years. Looking forward to hearing the communities thoughts on what we’ve put together here.

Nice article about why carbon offsets aren't working and how they can be improved. I am a little disappointed they left out soil-based solutions.

Nature - Pricing credits according to how much carbon is removed, for how long and how reliably, would direct funding to the most effective climate solutions.
