"In Australia,.. [that's] about 14 million tonnes of #CarbonDioxide equivalence a year. So that's a few per cent of our total emissions … it's significant, but it's not a massive contributor like say, our electricity system,"
"[With] other fertilisers such as #phosphate fertilisers, you don't get those same greenhouse gases on farm, but they still have an energy footprint.“

Reports of reddish brown waters around the Bay Area have SF Baykeeper concerned about another algal bloom. Baykeeper scientists suspect an outbreak of the same algae that caused a red tide across the Bay last year, resulting in an unprecedented fish kill event.

Nice analysis of #Canada's forests using large-scale and long-term #data:
"#Tree diversity increases decadal forest #soil carbon and nitrogen accrual" by Chen et al (2023)
Quote: "...#conserving and promoting functionally #diverse forests could promote soil carbon and #nitrogen storage, enhancing both #carbon sink capacity and soil nitrogen fertility."
This is increasingly important to consider we impose larger and more frequent #disturbances on #forest #ecosystems.

Dear #HOA,
This is a plot of #Goldenrod (gen. /Solidago/). They are #native to this area, have lovely yellow #flowers, and enrich the soil with #nitrogen. It is also a "keystone species", extremely important for #pollinator #diversity.
Since I am cultivating them, they are exempt from Sec 20-2(a), even if higher than 10 inches.
There are some #weeds here, especially an invasive monocot called "#grass". I am doing my best to eradicate it.
Thanks for your patience.
ex oh ex oh
luv, mike

#KnowledgeByte: An imbalance in #Nitrogen availability has been reported across the globe, with some places having an excess and others a shortage of the element.
Is availability of Nitrogen at stake? What are the implications for various ecosystems?

NH4+ is an important inorganic #nitrogen source but can cause severe toxicity in #plants. Xiao et al. discuss strategies for alleviating this toxicity and improving N use efficiency and #stress #adaptions in #crops.

Above 2.200 meters altitude, #plants have adapted to be #animal #toilets.
By the way, those Nepenthes which consume animal #poop take in twice as much #nutrients compared to the carnivorous plants. They receive #nitrogen, #phosphorus and #carbon from the excrements.
