A shout out for all of the SkS readers who generously responeed to a request for donations made by John Cook in his post, Be part of a landmark citizen science paper on consensus.
"Soils are a huge global reservoir of carbon - the equivalent of the amount of carbon you would find in plants and more than the amount found in the atmosphere," says Patrick Megonigal, deputy director of the Smithsonian Environmental Research Center.
"We're beginning to understand that climate changes - changes in temperature, plant activity, rainfall - all effect the soil's carbon reservoir," he says. "The way we manage soils can either mobilise that carbon back into the atmosphere and contribute to greenhouse gasses - or work the other way."

The Smithsonian Environmental Research Center (SERC) leads the US in research on linkages of land and water ecosystems in the coastal zone and provides society with knowledge to meet critical environmental challenges in the 21st century. SERC research extends far beyond its home base on the Chesapeake Bay. Its scientists use comparisons across latitude to test the effects of atmospheric, climatic and biological gradients.
