Understanding Soils
When taking soil profiles, scientists tend to focus on specific characteristics and concepts that can potentially tell us the most about the conditions of the soil. They look for microbes to determine what sorts of life are present in the soil, and, by inventorying the microbes in a given soil, scientists can judge the biodiversity […]
Soil Profiles
In order to explore what is living in the soil, we will collect and analyze soil profiles from our field sites, describing physical characteristics of the soil and the microbial and insect communities living there. We will then compare our results with other soil profiles compiled from online sources. We will also compare our results […]
