Soil can capture & retain water for a substantial amount of time, depending on the type of soil particles present. By storing water, soil supports plant & soil microbe health and growth. Learn more about how soil holds water in this #GroundedInSoils blog: wp.me/pclOv9-xV
Controlled traffic farming is an approach to address soil compaction. Controlled traffic farming limits where all field equipment is driven. This method reduces soil compaction and improves soil health. Read our #GroundedInSoils blog: wp.me/pclOv9-cn
Soil physics can solve a range of soil-related environmental challenges. West Kelowna, BC, bylaws require a minimum 30cm topsoil thickness, based on a study done by soil scientists to reduce the environmental aspects of development. Learn more here: wp.me/pclOv9-xc
The goal of soil health management is to minimize threats to #soil health that result in soil degradation. This #GroundedInSoils blog covers reducing soil compaction - including using root vegetables! More: wp.me/pclOv9-cc
We have literally just “scratched the surface” when it comes to understanding processes in the soil and how they interact with the broader environment. Learn about Keith Reid’s career as a soil scientist here: wp.me/pclOv9-xL
Soil is a complex three-phase system, comprised of solids, liquids, and gases. This area of soil science study is called soil physics. Learn about this important area of study in this new #GroundedInSoils blog post: wp.me/pclOv9-xc
Learn about the soils of Ontario! The Wisconsinan #glaciation covered Ontario with ice thicknesses exceeding one kilometre. This glacial event deposited almost all the parent materials from which Ontario #soils have developed. #GroundedInSoils tells more: wp.me/pclOv9-c4
The effects of soil salinization are complicated and can be very powerful. Impacts of salt-affected soils include impacts on: crop production, farmers ecosystems, and quality of natural resources. Learn more: wp.me/pclOv9-x5
Keith Reid is a soil scientist working toward the sustainable management of soil resources. Learn about why he became a soil scientist and what he likes about soil in this new #GroundedInSoil blog post: wp.me/pclOv9-xL
No single measurement quantifies #soil health. Soil scientists infer the health of a soil from a multitude of soil attributes, processes, and contexts. Tend to the soils with care to ensure that soils’ role in providing #ecosystem services will continue. wp.me/pclOv9-bT
You may have heard that soil can have salts in it. Does this mean table salt? Not really. There are many types of salts that build up in the soil – which can be a bad thing. Learn more about soil salinization in this #GroundedInSoils blog post: wp.me/pclOv9-x5
One month away! CJSS is looking for research on soils and resilience associated with disasters, covering topics like soil remediation, soil building, and nature-based climate solutions. Submit by Sep 30! For a full list of topics ➡️ ow.ly/jQxO50VmtLM @CSSS_Soils
Individuals can improve the organic matter of the soil in their own yard (or workplace!) by adapting the best practices of farmers. Learn more in this #GroundedInSoils blog post: wp.me/pclOv9-wZ
Though we typically refer to AB, SK, & MB as the Prairie Provinces, the true #prairies generally occupy only their southern portions. Shown: Chernozemic & Luvisolic great groups found in the Prairie Provinces. Read about their interesting #soils here: wp.me/pclOv9-bJ
Most soils are composed of inorganic mineral materials comprising overwhelming bulk of a soil. Well-structured soils are composed of about 50% solids; most of the solids are mineral materials. Learn more about soil mineralogy in this #GroundedInSoils blog: wp.me/pclOv9-bA
Scientists are with farmers and others to find ways to increase the soil organic matter on their farms. Leaving plant litter, reducing tillage, and using cover crops are a few methods being used. Learn more in this #GroundedInSoils blog post: wp.me/pclOv9-wZ
Soil organic matter is a complex mixture of plant, animal, or microbial-derived residues at various stages of decomposition. Plants and microbial communities are usually the biggest contributors to #soil organic matter. Learn more in this blog post: wp.me/pclOv9-wQ
I am humbled and honoured to receive the International Union of Soil Sciences Distinguished Medal of Service this morning at the #SoilsForOurFuture Conference. Thank you to the @CSSS_Soils for the kind nomination and to the @IUSS_ORG for the recognition. What an honour!…
Many soil scientists gathering in Winnipeg this week for the Soils for our Future international conference. Hosted by Dr. Mario Tenuta and @ManitobaSoil @CSSS_Soils @soilcouncil @SOILSFUTURE2025 @UM_agfoodsci @soilecologyUMan
The SOILS FOR OUR FUTURE Conference (July 20-25) has changed the venue to the Delta Hotel for our scientific sessions due to Manitoba wildfires. See the meeting website for more information: soilsforourfuture.ca
