Soils are alive
Soils are not just rock and dust but are astonishing living systems that are full of life! In this first section, you will read about little creatures that you might already know, like earthworms. You will also discover many new creatures, like springtails and mites, that live close to you in your garden, in the parks, or in nearby fields. Our authors will even show you an entire world of tiny creatures not visible by the naked eye: tiny bacteria, fungi, and protists. Soil biodiversity is about the diversity of these organisms.

But how many different organisms are there? How different are they from each other? To answer these questions, scientists need tools and methods to observe and understand the biodiversity under our feet.

How can we observe this beautiful world under our feet?
In the articles in this section, the authors describe the tools and methods they use to observe and understand soil biodiversity. It is not easy to see the creatures in the soil and what they are doing under our feet; therefore, soils are often called the "black box". Some scientists are using the body fat of soil creatures to identify them and monitor what they feed on; others use DNA to identify soil organisms, like forensic investigators in the movies. In addition, our authors will explain how soil organisms are "talking" to each other and how we study these interactions.

What are scientists learning from studying these soil creatures? Is soil biodiversity important to us?

Why is soil biodiversity so essential to us?
In this section, the authors illustrate that soil biodiversity maintains processes essential for our well-being. For example, you will learn that soil bacteria can keep your food safe by protecting it from diseases. We will highlight that soil biodiversity is essential for nature to work. For example, the authors will demonstrate that soil organisms are vital for recycling dead matter and releasing the nutrients in it. In addition, you will see how soil organisms are directly affecting greenhouse gas emissions such as carbon dioxide and methane by controlling soil processes. Controlling these emissions is critical for keeping our climate stable.

Soil organisms are alive, moving, and interacting, but are all these organisms and their important functions changing with time? Are these communities of soil organisms set in stone?

Soil communities are changing
You probably know that a lot of trees, flowers, and animals can change over the year with the seasons; flowers and fruits appear in spring and summer, leaves drop from the trees in fall. Soil animals are also changing with the seasons. And, like us, soil organisms can move to new places or disappear from others, either permanently or temporarily. These changes can be natural but can also be the result of human activities. Our authors will show you that agricultural practices and the effects of climate change (such as reduced rainfall) are affecting soil organisms, their functions, and the services they provide to us.

As we saw previously, soil biodiversity is essential for us, so any changes could be disastrous. So can we protect the organisms in the soil in the same way we protect other organisms such as tigers and pandas?

Protecting soil biodiversity
In the final section of this Collection, our authors will show you how to protect soil biodiversity. We can reduce our impacts and conserve this wonderful belowground life. But we can even go a step further and restore lost soil functions using our knowledge of soil biodiversity; for example by using fungi to restore soils. However, this is only possible if we understand soil biodiversity and its function. This is where you can help, for example by participating in a citizen science project and going outside to help researchers.

Conclusion
This Collection is about illuminating the "black box" of soil and showing you some of the fantastic creatures living under our feet. You will learn how scientists are studying soil biodiversity and how this soil biodiversity is essential for us. However, you will also see that soil biodiversity is under threat and needs to be protected. Many people across the globe will be needed to effectively protect these vital systems below our feet. That’s why it is important to spread the word about the beauty and fragility of belowground life. We hope that this Collection will make you a champion of soil biodiversity and that you will pass on this message so that everyone will become more aware of, and be better able to protect soil biodiversity.

Now it is your turn to explore and engage with the content of this Collection. We hope there will be something for all of you!"> 土壤生物多样性对年轻人·前沿雷竞技rebat - 雷竞技app下载官方版

关于这个集合

这个集合是超过50的作品所有世界各地的年轻科学家和评论家。我们作为编辑和作者一起,就是与你分享我们的爱的土壤生物多样性。在这篇文章里,你会发现土壤充满生活。我们将介绍的一些方法和技术被科学家用来观察下面的生活我们的脚。我们将向您展示健康的土壤和地下的生活是至关重要的,因此,对于我们。不过,你很快就会意识到地下的生活变化和多种威胁之下。作者会给意见我们如何能保护土壤生物多样性和邀请您积极帮助我们在研究和保护这个宝贵的生态系统。我们有收集本文分为四个部分,下面分别介绍。使我们的文章可以尽可能多的你,我们已经创建了一个网站举办除英语之外的其他语言的翻译。

土壤是活着的
土壤不仅是岩石和灰尘,但惊人的生命系统完整的生活!在第一个部分中,您将了解小生物,你可能已经知道,像蚯蚓一样。你也会发现许多新的生物,跳虫、螨等生活接近你的花园,公园,或在附近的字段。我们的作者甚至会给你整个世界的微小生物肉眼不可见的:微小的细菌,真菌,原生生物。土壤生物多样性是关于这些生物的多样性。

但是有多少不同的生物呢?他们从彼此有多不同?为了回答这些问题,科学家们需要工具和方法来观察和理解生物多样性在我们的脚下。

我们如何观察这个美丽的世界在我们的脚下?
的文章在这一节中,作者描述他们所使用的工具和方法来观察和理解土壤生物多样性。不容易看到土壤中的生物,他们在做什么在我们的脚下;因此,土壤通常被称为“黑盒”。一些科学家正在使用土壤生物的身体脂肪来识别和监控他们吃;其他人使用DNA识别土壤生物,比如法医调查人员在电影中。此外,我们的作者将解释土壤生物是如何相互“交谈”,我们如何研究这些交互。

科学家们学习研究这些土壤的生物是什么?土壤生物多样性重要吗?

为什么土壤生物多样性对我们如此重要?
在这一节中,作者说明,土壤生物多样性维护过程对我们的健康至关重要。例如,您将了解土壤细菌可以保证食物的安全,保护它免受疾病。我们将突出,土壤生物多样性是大自然必不可少的工作。例如,作者将表明土壤生物对回收无机物质和释放营养至关重要。此外,您将看到如何直接影响土壤生物二氧化碳和甲烷等温室气体的排放控制土壤过程。控制这些排放对保持我们的气候稳定至关重要。

土壤生物是活着的,移动,和互动,但所有这些生物体及其重要功能随时间改变?这些土壤生物群落一成不变吗?

土壤社区正在改变
你可能知道很多的树,花,和动物可以随今年随着季节的变化;鲜花和水果出现在春季和夏季,秋天树叶从树上滴。土壤动物也随着季节的变化。像我们一样,土壤生物可以从别人搬到新的地方或消失,永久或暂时的。这些变化可以是自然的,但也可以是人类活动的结果。我们的作者将向您展示,农业和气候变化的影响(如减少降雨)是影响土壤生物,他们的功能,他们对我们提供的服务。

正如我们之前看到的,土壤生物多样性是至关重要的对我们来说,所以任何变化可能是灾难性的。所以我们可以保护土壤中的微生物以同样的方式我们保护其他生物如老虎和熊猫吗?

土壤生物多样性保护
作者在这个系列的最后一节,我们将向您展示如何保护土壤生物多样性。我们可以减少影响和保护这个美妙的地下的生活。但我们甚至可以更进一步,恢复了土壤功能使用我们的知识的土壤生物多样性;例如通过使用恢复土壤真菌。然而,这仅仅是可能的如果我们理解土壤生物多样性和它的功能。这就是你能帮助,例如参与公民科学项目,帮助研究人员外出。

结论
这个集合是照亮了“黑匣子”的土壤和向你们展示一些神奇的生物在我们的脚下。您将了解如何科学家们正在研究土壤生物多样性和土壤生物多样性如何对我们来说是至关重要的。然而,您还将看到,土壤生物多样性受到威胁,需要保护。许多人需要在全球范围内有效地保护这些重要的系统低于我们的脚。这就是为什么它是重要的传播消息关于地下的美丽和脆弱的生命。我们希望这个集合将使你成为一个冠军的土壤生物多样性和你会传递这个消息,这样每个人都会变得更加意识到,能够更好地保护土壤生物多样性。

现在轮到你去探索和参与这个集合的内容。我们希望将会有你们所有的人!
