We invited Frank Ashwood to talk with us about "Visual Elements in Ecology". We discuss how to visually document the small world below our feet. Spoiler: it takes patience. But what impact and use can the resulting images have - to the person taking the visuals and to the ones watching it?

We invited Nico Eisenhauer to talk with us about "The Role of Experiments in Soil Ecology". We talk about the need of experiments, what factors we can study with them, and why careful interpretation is key.

We invited Matthias Rillig to talk with us about "Plastics and Soil Pressures". How are microplastics influencing soils? (Its not all bad and shape matters...) And how to measure multiple pressures on soils [from 31:25min]? Check it out! So(i)lid Science - the podcast about science and people with a certain focus on soils. Folge direkt herunterladen

We invited Diana Wall to talk with us about "Soils in the Antarctic". How do you sample under extreme cold? What organisms can survive there in the soil? This episode will tell you! So(i)lid Science - the podcast about science and people with a certain focus on soils. Folge direkt herunterladen

We invited Ana Carolina Ruiz Fernández to talk with us about "Soils at the interface between terrestrial and marine ecosystems". We talk about the difference between "soil" and "sediments", about sampling in tidal ecosystems and about their importance.

We invited Don Cowan and Hannah Karuri to talk with us about "Soil ecology in Africa". What makes African soils and working with them special? And what do we not know about them yet? So(i)lid Science - the podcast about science and people with a certain focus on soils. Folge direkt herunterladen

We invited Petra Stankovics to talk with us about "Legal aspects of soils". How are soils considered in European policy? There is at least one big difference between the ecological and legal perspective on soils. So(i)lid Science - the podcast about science and people with a certain focus on soils.

We invited Zoe Lindo and Toke Høye to talk with us about "The Lost Art of Taxonomy". We are especially interested in the role of both, taxonomists and machine learning approaches, how they do and will interact, and what is needed today and in the future to fulfill the demands and develop new approaches.
