A comparison of modeled and observed soil organic carbon (SOC) stocks for three commonly used soil biogeochemistry models (a-c). Each panel reports model performance metrics generated with “default” model parameters and with parameters informed by observations (“fitted”). While model performance tends to increase with fitted parameters, all three models poorly predicted SOC stocks in Sub-Saharan …

Penn State undergraduates and graduate students taking a marine biogeochemistry course that explores the ways life influences and is influenced by chemical, physical and geological processes in the ocean, spent spring break visiting San Salvador Island in the Bahamas.
Francien Peterse will receive the John Hayes Award, given to a mid-career scientist for outstanding accomplishments that draw together multiple fields of investigation to advance biogeochemical science.
In this blog post, we hear from Associate Editor Ji Liu, Associate Professor at the Institute of Earth Environment, Chinese Academy of Sciences and a Postdoctoral Researcher at the Spanish National Research Council (CISC)-Centre for Ecological Research and Forestry Applications. Ji’s primary research interests are in ecological stoichiometry and the coupled biogeochemical cycles of carbon, …
The US Geological Survey is offering a funding opportunity to a CESU partner for research in biogeochemistry to evaluate the bioaccessibility of lead and other elements in contaminated soils from variety of environments. Research Objectives: 1) Evaluate the use of an established in vitro method for lead bioaccessibility (EPA method... Continue reading

Hi!! I am Deepak, a final year PhD student. I have recently submitted my thesis for evaluation at the Indian Institute of Science Education and Research (IISER) Kolkata, India. I am quite passionate about my research work as a scientist,… Continue reading →
Clarice Perryman, University of New Hampshire - M.S., expected May 2018, studies biogeochemistry at the University of New Hampshire’s Department of Earth Science. She investigates carbon dynamics of peatlands and wetlands, specifically studying geochemical controls of methane oxidation in thawing permafrost. She will be conducting field research at Stordalen Mire, a permafrost peatland in A…
http://www.nature.com/nature/journal/v537/n7622/full/537625a.html Carbon emissions from the Arctic tundra could increase drastically as global warming thaws permafrost. Clues now obtained about the long-term effects of such thawing on carbon dioxide emissions highlight the need for more data.
