Kalyn Taylor, PhD

Check out new OA paper led by @SoilLife, @samaddars, and I 🌾 Main takeaway — depth matters! Annual wheat vs. #Kernza stored carbon at different depths in the soil profile & hosted distinct soil fungal communities primarily in the rhizosphere & topsoil. doi.org/10.1016/j.soil…

This work was possible because of our wonderful co-authors – Daniel Liptzin, Lauren Porensky, Jocelyn Lavallee, David Augustine, & David Hoover. Thank you all!

New OA pub led by @JustinDernerWY, @soil_institute, & I🌱Multidecadal grazing intensity experiments in CO & WY show location/climate, not grazing, drove soil C outcomes. We also found inconsistent responses to grazing among & within soil health indicators: doi.org/10.1016/j.agee…

We can't wait to see you for the first Main Stage session of the day at 8:00 AM! Don't miss the "Health Soils. Healthy Planet." panel and the final Producers Voices panel with a Spotlight on Data and Reporting. #SustAg2024

@samaddars @tsnelsen @SoilLife Thank you Sandipan!! Hope you are doing great ☺️

@KalynMTaylor @tsnelsen @SoilLife Congrats Kalyn.

New OA pub✨🌾Mark Lundy, @tsnelsen, @SoilLife, & I quantified yield, soil microbial biomass, & soil carbon in no-till wheat, tilled wheat, & #Kernza in CA. We learned that plant vigor & soil disturbance largely underpinned soil microbe & soil C outcomes. doi.org/10.1016/j.stil…

@sandersoil @tsnelsen @SoilLife Thank you! 🙂 and great question. We are writing up soil carbon stock results right now! Should be out soon.

@KalynMTaylor @tsnelsen @SoilLife Nice work. Is the soil carbon data itself presented in a different paper?

We are still looking to hire a post-doc for this posting. Field-based soil biogeochemists looking for a postdoc (esp. with experience w soil C in working lands), please apply ASAP! Come work with an amazing team @Livermore_Lab, with amazing salary ($108K/yr) and benefits.

Does synthetic nitrogen fertilizer burn up soil organic matter? Multiple studies say NO. N fertilizer actually slows loss of old soil organic matter and increases microbial biomass and new soil organic matter. New from @jwadeexperience and I: csanr.wsu.edu/nitrogen-ferti…

LLNL is looking for Soil Biogeochemist - Postdoctoral Researcher. Go work with @NoahSokol and @Jeffinerca and many others on an awesome soil carbon project... jobs.smartrecruiters.com/LLNL/374399000… via @SmartRecruiters

ARS scientists’ research collaborations help land managers and producers understand how climate change impacts grazing land beef production in the U.S. and explore adaptive strategies for managing climate variabilities. bit.ly/3RhpQAw; bit.ly/47KvQY4

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…

Seeking a postdoctoral scholar to lead research on soil functions of grazed orchard system with @piresalda1 @treecrops @Dr_BGood and a dream team of growers! Join us in assessing the potential of #agroforestry and #regenerativeagriculture recruit.ucdavis.edu/JPF06104

@SBGUCDavis @iris_holzer @BenHoulton @UCSB YES! Go @iris_holzer 👏 🥳 You are an incredible scientist and I am so excited for your next chapter!

Congrats to Dr. @iris_holzer for presenting her research on the effects of #silicate weathering in agricultural and natural settings in the @BenHoulton lab. Iris is heading to @UCSB to teach #soilscience and #environmentalchemistry. UCSB students will be lucky to have her!

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

Hi ya'll - haven't been here for a while but want to share a job opening at the University of Wyoming - looking for a soil science faculty member. Plz share widely. eeik.fa.us2.oraclecloud.com/hcmUI/Candidat…

++ 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

@danrejto @SoilLife @samaddars Other studies have compared soil carbon in IWG vs. wheat at depth — check out excellent pubs by @SumSciNerd & @Sprunger_PhD. And yes, I would expect climate & soil type to play a significant role. Great questions!

@KalynMTaylor @SoilLife @samaddars Very interesting! Were previous studies primarily just looking at 0-30cm? And would you expect the results to vary substantially based on geography and environmental conditions?

@YichaoRui_PAL @SoilLife @samaddars Thank you so much @YichaoRui_PAL! I hope you are doing great 🙂

@KalynMTaylor @SoilLife @samaddars Congrats Kalyn!

A big thanks to Radomir Schmidt, Mark Lundy, @SoilLife, & @samaddars for this collaboration.
