According to a new study, communities of organisms adapt collectively to grassland use. more

Storing carbon in the soil can help to mitigate climate change. Soil organic matter bound to minerals in particular can store carbon in the long term. A new study shows that the formation of mineral-associated organic matter depends primarily on the type of mineral, but is also influenced by land use and cultivation intensity. more

Large-scale study shows the benefits of high grassland biodiversity for a variety of ecosystem services and rural stakeholder groups. more
