Ecological theory suggests that biodiversity has a positive and stabilizing effect on the
delivery of ecosystem services. Yet, the impacts of increasing the diversity of cultivated crop …

Biochar, a carbon (C)-rich material obtained from the thermochemical conversion of biomass
under oxygen-limited environments, has been proposed as one of the most promising …

Increasing soil organic carbon (SOC) stocks in agricultural soils removes carbon dioxide
from the atmosphere and contributes towards achieving carbon neutrality. For farmers …

Soil organic carbon (SOC) is closely tied to soil health. However, additional biological
indicators may also provide insight about C dynamics and microbial activity. We used SOC …

Executive summary Land and climate interact in complex ways through changes in forcing
and multiple biophysical and biogeochemical feedbacks across different spatial and …

To respect the Paris agreement targeting a limitation of global warming below 2° C by 2100,
and possibly below 1.5° C, drastic reductions of greenhouse gas emissions are mandatory …

Anthropogenic activities profoundly impact soil organic carbon (SOC), affecting its
contribution to ecosystem services such as climate regulation. Here, we conducted a …

Soil health is a term used to describe the general state or quality of soil, and in an
agroecosystem, soil health can be defined as the ability of the soil to respond to agricultural …

The capacity of soils to store organic carbon represents a key function of soils that is not only
decisive for climate regulation but also affects other soil functions. Recent efforts to assess …

The sustainability of life on Earth is under increasing threat due to human-induced climate
change. This perilous change in the Earth's climate is caused by increases in carbon dioxide …
