SoilBon is an initiative by GEO BON and iDiv to sytematically record the status of soils and their belowground diversity based on common global standards. Together with Prof. Alexandra Weigelt at Leipzig University, I am responsible for the root biomass and root trait measurements of the soil samples.
For more information on the project, see the project website: https://soilbon.org/ and https://www.idiv.de/measuring-the-belowground-world/.
