One of the cool things about Hanover is that within only a few km distance, one can find one of the worst soils of 🇩🇪 (podzol: 21/100 points) and one of the best soils (chernozem: 96/100). Of course, both are equally beautiful 😍, irrespective of how fertile they are

We are looking for a full professor and chair of the Soil Physics and Land Management (SLM) group — a team with an outstanding international reputation in research and education.

Please share!

As a future reader of your book chapter😉, I'd love to see a section on how soil fauna influences the physical structure of soil (and vice versa). There's a really cool review on this (maybe you already know this one, but just in case) doi.org/10.1016/j.so...

Now THAT is what I call a proper soil pit 😅. Visited my wonderful colleagues @franzibucka.bsky.social and Nele Meyer of @goetheuni.bsky.social today to admire this beautiful loess soil profile (including "little" traces of bioturbation 🦡)

Our next community meeting is on Tuesday! Please join us to learn all about eLabFTW version 5.2, which has many new exciting features and tools 🔬⚗️🔭🧪⚛️

Dear Soil Science friends!
There are so many brilliant geoscientists out there who deserve a recognition for their excellent research (e.g. the Alina Kabata-Pendias Medal of the @egu-sss.bsky.social). If you know somebody who you think should get one of the awards, please nominate them 👇

Hyperspectral Imaging - HAIP Solutions - Applied Spectral Imaging We design and manufacture integrated, user-friendly Hyperspectral Imaging Solutions - made directly for your application!

I’m very excited to explore the potential of this technology for predicting biocrust stability, especially since Tobias is an absolute expert on this topic and the CEO of a company that produces hyperspectral cameras, check it out here: www.haip-solutions.com

Had a brilliant time at the Baltic Sea the past two days with colleagues from Uni Rostock and my great student Tobias from @unihannover.bsky.social. We measured #biocrust stability in the field and want to find out if we can correlate coastal dune stability with hyperspectral imaging data.

Preparations for our state-wide soil excursion are in full flow. Very much looking forward to when this is finally ready. Stay tuned if you want to learn more about the soils of Hesse 🤠

It starts with preprinting everything @biorxivpreprint.bsky.social, obviously.

Flying home after a great week in Florence, where I did a @euerasmusplus.bsky.social lecturer exchange, taught about the use of CT in soil science and even got to see the new CT scanner of Uni Firenze 🤓

Sounds like a great feature ☺️👍. When is the release?

🥳 Great news, congrats 🤗! The next generation of biocrust nerds is secured 🤓

What was that? You always wondered how desert isopods affect soil C flux and microtopography of biological soil crusts? Look no further 😅: I'm happy to share the latest paper in @geoderma.bsky.social with @nevosagi.bsky.social:
