The funding/opportunity cutoff on age, career stage/ university type, etc has always baffled me. Figuring out how the universe works is independent of our social constructs. biology.ucdavis.edu/news/supportin…

The color red is associated with strong emotions: power 🦸‍♂️, anger 😡but also love 💕and passion ❤️‍🔥. For Valentines day 💝we selected this red #soil for you from our basement! This soil under sugar cane is from #Brazil 🇧🇷: isis.isric.org/monoliths/refe…. Happy #valentinesday2024 🌹 !

Interested in designing your own 2-3 year postdoc in agroecology, soil health, and crop-livestock integration in Chile? I am seeking candidates to sponsor for the Chilean Fondecyt Postdoctoral Fellowship, for details contact me by email and see investigacion.agronomia.uc.cl/contenido/post…

Happy World Soil Day from the World Soil Museum!🥳 #worldsoilday #soilsoftheworld #worldsoilmuseum

Did you know California state scientists are on the FIRST EVER STRIKE BY STATE EMPLOYEES this week? They‘ve worked for 3 YEARS w/o a contract! If you’re in CA, call your reps! If you’re not, do your state scientists have a fair contract? More: amp.sacbee.com/news/politics-… #equalpayCA

Mark Lundy & Kalyn Taylor just published a fascinating paper comparing no-till annual #wheat, tilled annual wheat & perennial wheatgrass in Calif: No-till is best for soil health AND for solid yield! plantsciences.ucdavis.edu/news/Lundy-no-… #1intheWorldPlantSciences #conservationtillage

I’m hiring a soil biogeochemistry postdoc @Livermore_Lab to study soil-based strategies for carbon removal in the field, esp. interactions between soil organic C cycling and enhanced weathering. Work with an amazing, collaborative team! Salary: $108K/yr. jobs.smartrecruiters.com/LLNL/374399000…

A fun afternoon @UCD_Arboretum teaching nursery where SBG students and alumni co-taught the Climate-Ready Gardening outreach program w/Ellen Zagory. Today’s focus: #biodiversity! Trainees got their hands dirty w/a soil characterization demo and a biodiversity scavenger hunt.

JOB ALERT ‼️ Our department (LAWR) is recruiting an Assistant Professor of Cooperative Extension, with a focus in soil health practices in CA. Apply by 12/15/2023 for full consideration! #SoilHealth #CooperativeExtension recruit.ucdavis.edu/JPF06134

Students-last chance-jobs close today! Apply 4 student internships: 11 of the #soil scientist jobs are in our group, located in NE, MN, IA, CT, NY, OH, MI, OR, GA & MS (bit.ly/405eN08) & 3 of the forester internships in TN, NC, & CT (bit.ly/48TTxhO). @USAJOBS

In the first field study of its kind, published in @IOPenvironment, @ucdavis scientist @iris_holzer in @BenHoulton lab, found that crushed volcanic rock added to cropland stored #carbon in the soil even during an extreme drought in California. cals.cornell.edu/news/2023/10/a…

@IOPenvironment It was amazing to have the creative vision of scientist and artist @BonnSci as part of this project; she designed the core illustration for this publication!

You can find the full paper in Environmental Research Communications from @IOPenvironment: iopscience.iop.org/article/10.108…

Thrilled to share this new research from our enhanced weathering field study @ucdavis! 🌎🪨💧 It was such a pleasure to work with @mallika_nocco and @BenHoulton on this project. ucdavis.edu/climate/news/a…

Such a privilege to have been part of the @SBGUCDavis community these past 6 years. And so excited for new soils adventures @ucsantabarbara! 🪨🍃💧

So awesome to collaborate with @FreyaChay, @NoahSokol & @ESlessarev to sort through the complexities of enhanced weathering MRV 🪨📈

Fantastic working with the team @carbonplanorg (esp. @FreyaChay) - as well as @ESlessarev and @iris_holzer – on this new tool describing which methods will help to quantify net carbon removal from enhanced rock weathering.

++ biodiversity in soil, but its rarely included in biodiv. conservation convos - why? Partly cause it's really hard to measure! New @CDFAnews report outlines framework for selecting soil biodiv. indicators including stakeholder feedback + expert opinion tinyurl.com/2e5z5rt4
