Soil health assessment using buried cotton underpants with the help of 1000 citizen scientists

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Soil is a vital resource for life on Earth. Although many soils are degraded, societal awareness of soil‐related issues is limited. To highlight soil as a key resource and fascinating study system, we initiated a citizen science project together with 1000 participants investigating soil health across Switzerland using buried cotton underpants.

Recommendations to enhance neurodiversity inclusivity in field‐based learning in plant biology higher education

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Societal Impact Statement Field‐based learning is an important component of plant biology higher education, offering students valuable hands‐on in situ experiences to help students appreciate and understand plants within their environment. This nature‐based learning may be particularly valuable for students with neurodiversity conditions who might ...

Modulation of turbulence and mesoscale structure in nested large‐eddy simulations with a gray‐zone parent domain

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
The cell perturbation (CP) method mitigate mesoscale structural perturbations entering large‐eddy simulations (LES) from gray‐zone parent domains. The turbulent kinetic energy (TKE) bias‐filtering effect of CP increases with nesting ratio and is most pronounced under weakly convective conditions.

A more complete IMAGE: enhancing the climate change impact representation in integrated assessment models

open access: yesEnvironmental Research Letters
Currently, climate impacts are mostly absent in the analysis of process-based integrated assessment models (IAMs). This is becoming increasingly problematic given the fact that climate impacts are expected to influence both baseline developments as well ...

Multiscale numerical sensitivity simulations of a mesoscale gravity‐wave event

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
High‐resolution WRF simulations of the February 14–15, 1992 STORM‐FEST event show that mesoscale gravity‐wave genesis occurs via geostrophic adjustment within an upper‐level unbalanced jet, while wave ducting governs maintenance. High‐resolution (1 km), improved physical parameterization, and targeted sensitivity simulations demonstrate that upstream ...
