Global Soil Science Research Map
From Arctic ecosystems and volcanic lava tubes to classrooms, rivers, farms, and urban environments, Soil Science Lab connects citizen science with real-world environmental research.
Our work explores soil biodiversity, microbes, nematodes, ecosystem health, and the hidden microscopic systems that shape life on Earth. Through expeditionary science and community-powered research, we study environmental resilience, biodiversity, and One Health connections between ecosystems and human health.
