A science based community to discuss and learn all things related to soils.
Notice Board
This is a work in progress, please don't mind the mess.
Subdisciplines of soil science include:
- Soil Taxonomy & mapping
- Soil Fertility & Organic Amendments
- Soil Chemistry & Remediation
- Soil Mineralogy
- Soil Physics
- Soil Biology
These subdisciplines are used by various other disciplines, particularly those related to reclamation, remediation, and agriculture.

Unfortunately, this is really common in soil science news articles. They are written so a 5th grader can read them.
The amount of cussing I did with every mention of the word 'dirt'
Finally, if it's soil microbes, they are part of the soil biome, and thus it's not technically wrong.
I definitely got the impression from the title that somehow someone had come up with a way to turn literal dirt into energy.
Like the mineral component?
Yeah, that'd be hard. Unsustainable too. Just look at sand mining for an example of how bad that would be.
