New research shows for the first time that soil silicates -- the most abundant material on the Earth's crust -- play a key role in blood clotting. While the researchers caution that there is a high ...

Researchers from the Institute of Applied Ecology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) have conducted an ecosystem-wide assessment of enhanced rock weathering (ERW) in forest plantations. Led by ...

Soil chemistry underpins our understanding of carbon dynamics by elucidating the physical and chemical processes that govern the retention, transformation, and eventual long‐term storage of organic ...

Could part of the answer to saving the Earth from global warming lie in the earth beneath our feet? A team from Newcastle University aims to design soils that can remove carbon from the atmosphere, ...
