About us
Soil organisms play a crucial role in many of the processes that occur in soil, which are directly linked to the provision of ecosystem services. While it's clear that soil organisms are essential for providing multiple ecosystem services, we still need to explore the relationships between specific soil organisms and the provision of essential ecosystem services across various types of land use. In addition, there is a lack of information on how nutrient cycling, pollution prevention, water infiltration/retention, productivity, soil structure, and soil biodiversity are related to different land uses. Using a statistical approach with cutting-edge elements from AI, such as statistical learning and machine learning algorithms, BIOservicES will establish the relationship between soil organisms, and their multiple uses. The primary goal of BIOservicES is to comprehend the connection between various soil organisms such as viruses, bacteria, archaea, fungi, protists, nematodes, microarthropods, earthworms, isopods, millipedes, insects, and spiders, and how they contribute to the delivery of multiple soil ecosystem functions and services at different scales, taking into account different land uses and climate change. The project seeks to identify the pressures and drivers affecting soil organisms and their services, perform an economic valuation of their contribution to the ecosystem, and develop decision-support tools and models that can help design climate-resilient management practices and monitoring, conservation, and restoration programs. The 60-month project, funded by the European Union through the Horizon Europe program, will involve 22 partners from 11 countries with very different profiles (universities, small and medium-sized enterprises, consultancies, farmers, and NGOs, among others).

📅 Our webinar on 'Carbon Farming Certification' is just around the corner! 🌱 📢 We are sharing with you that Arthur Monhoval, Research Specialist at Soil Capital, will be joining us as the third speaker. He will present insights from the MRV4SOC project on the topic 'Carbon Certification - Ensuring Fairness for Farmers and Supporting the Transition to Regenerative Practices.' ✅ In this session, Arthur will delve into the critical challenges of developing a fair, reliable, and accurate carbon certification framework for farmers and key stakeholders. He will explore the ongoing efforts of MRV4SOC (Monitoring, Reporting, and Verification for Soil Organic Carbon), focusing on essential Tier 3 methodologies that are vital for creating a robust and comprehensive system. Additionally, Soil Capital will share valuable perspectives from working directly with farmers, addressing their needs and expectations. Arthur will also highlight how a well-structured carbon certification process can empower farmers to embrace regenerative practices while ensuring the integrity and reliability of the certification. 🙌 Join us and other organizations committed to soil health to enhance your understanding of the EU carbon farming certification framework. Don't miss this opportunity to learn from leading experts in the field! 🔗 Interested in our upcoming webinar? Become a member of our online community at ➡️ https://lnkd.in/dJc7AtFc.

📢 Today, we will introduce the second speaker of our upcoming 'Carbon Farming Certification webinar,' organized in collaboration with the Soil Community Platform and our partners from the InBestSoil and MRV4SOC projects! 🌱 The 💻 #SoilCommunityPlatform is a collaborative effort between #InBestSoil and #BIOservicES. It promotes cooperation among diverse initiatives to advance key elements like policy recommendations, innovative business strategies, soil health metrics, and monitoring methods. 🔍 Join us as we welcome Lucia Perugini, expert in Carbon Farming Certification and LULUCF from the European Environment Agency. Her presentation, 'Carbon Removals and Carbon Farming: Framework Introduction and Linkages with GHG Inventories,' will undoubtedly provide valuable insights. ✅ In her session, Lucia will provide an overview of the EU Carbon Removals and Carbon Farming Certification (CRCF) Regulation, which establishes a voluntary framework for certifying carbon removals and sustainable farming practices across Europe. She will delve into the regulation's significance in setting EU quality standards and monitoring processes that drive investment in innovative carbon removal technologies. Moreover, Lucia will explore the connection between the CRCF Regulation and greenhouse gas inventories, emphasizing its crucial role in tracking carbon removals and emissions reductions. Lastly, she will discuss the co-benefits of soil carbon. 📅 Interested in learning more? Don't miss out!

🌍 On World Water Day, we want to emphasize the vital connection between healthy soils and clean water. 🌱💧 As this year's theme is 'Glacier Preservation,' we should take it as a wake-up call as they play a crucial role in regulating our water systems. The rapid melting of glaciers due to climate change affects soil health and thriving organisms. 🇪🇺 Our project focuses on understanding the relationships between soil organisms and the ecosystem services they provide, including water retention and climate regulation. 🙌 By preserving our soils, we can help safeguard our water resources and combat the impacts of climate change! #BIOservicES #EuropeanProject #SoilHealth #WorldWaterDay #GlacierPreservation #EcosystemServices #ClimateChange #WaterConservation
