I'm excited to share our new perspective in Biogeosciences: omics to connect microbial cells to planetary biogeochemistry. Entry points for soil, ocean, air, ice, paleo-archives, plus a cross-ecosystem table of omics resources: coverage, limits, standards. doi.org/10.5194/bg-2...

Ideas and perspectives: Using meta-omics to unravel biogeochemical changes from cell to planetary scales

Abstract. Increased human impacts on Earth systems are radically altering biogeochemical cycles. While long-term environmental observatories and Earth System Models (ESMs) provide valuable insights in...

Huge congrats to @thomascortier.bsky.social, postdoc in my #GAMEchange group, who delivered a fantastic poster at #EGU26 on uncovering the adaptive mechanisms behind the respiration response of soil microbes to warming at the Harvard Forest using mathematical models. Great work Thomas!
