Our preprint on Agaricales comparative genomics is out! 🍄 122 genomes reveal how grassland fungi evolved diverse strategies: Ectomycorrhizal species lost plant-degrading enzymes while saprotrophs expanded them. 👉https://shorturl.at/shWPp @fmartin54.bsky.social #Fungi #Genomics #SoilEcology

Today is my 32nd birthday, and one of the first things I did was turn over the soil in my worm bin. 🪱
To me, there's nothing more alchemical than turning waste into abundance.

Understanding these signals is key to sustainable agriculture and restoration. If we can ‘speak’ the language of the soil holobiont, we can build healthier ecosystems from ground up

🌧️ Mixed forests keep soil life thriving, even when rainfall shifts!
A JFR study shows that plant species mixtures boost springtail abundance and diversity, especially in drier conditions.

Job offer: The Swiss Federal Institute for Forest, Snow and Landscape Research WSL is part of the ETH Domain. Approximately 600 people work on the sustainable use and protection of the environment and on the handling of natural hazards. The Research Unit Forest and Soil Ecology investigates the functions of forests and soils under global environmental change. The Soil Functions and Dynamics group within the Unit is offering a six-month position starting on 1 January 2026 or by agreement as an Intern in Soil Chemistry 80-100% (f/m/d) Within the project DRYMET that seeks to quantify risks from heavy metals to drinking water quality, you will support the project leader in the development of methods for field experiments and in the analysis of soil samples. Your duties will include helping to set up experiments with soil and soil solutions, taking samples and preserving them for analysis, and conducting UV-Vis spectrophotometric analyses. Additionally, you will support field operations and installations at our research sites, mainly in southern Switzerland. Depending on your background and interests, there will be opportunities to gain knowledge on various aspects of soil functioning. For this internship, a bachelor’s or master’s degree in environmental sciences or chemistry is required along with basic experience working in a laboratory. Working proficiency in English or German is essential. The ability to learn quickly and work independently is highly valued.

Job offer: The Research Unit Forest and Soil Ecology investigates the functions of forests and soils under global environmental change. The group Soil Functions and Dynamics within the Unit is offering a 2-year position as a PostDoc in Soil Function Assessment 80-100% (f/m/d) Forest soils perform various functions such as nutrient provision, carbon storage, and water filtration, which are essential to overall ecosystem functioning, especially in light of climate change. Assessing soil functions relies on field investigations; however, these have to be complemented with Digital Soil Mapping (DSM) approaches to provide meaningful soil information across scales. In this project, you will leverage the large soil database (>2000 profiles) hosted by the Soil Functions and Dynamics group, along with soil spatial modeling techniques, to assess soil functioning in Swiss forests. You will evaluate changes in soil properties over time and across spatial gradients, and provide interpretations for soil functioning. You will also specifically investigate the provision of nutrients coupled with vegetation data, using indicators such as base saturation (BS%) to infer nutrient status and acidification risk. As part of a team, you will communicate the results to the stakeholders and the scientific community via meetings, presentations, and publications. You hold a doctorate in soil science, environmental science, or geography, and have a fundamental understanding of physical and chemical processes in soils. You have experience with geospatial modeling and are proficient in a programming language relevant to data analysis (ideally R). Additionally, you demonstrate strong communication skills (oral and written), evidenced by a record of publication and presentation. Fluency in written and spoken English is essential; knowledge of German is highly valued.

Are you curious about the whether soil microbial distribution is predictable?🤔
The key takeaway:
Bacteria 🦠→ predictable! 😊
Fungi & Protists 🍄💧 → harder to predict 😭

Job offer: The Swiss Federal Institute for Forest, Snow and Landscape Research WSL is part of the ETH Domain. Approximately 600 people work on the sustainable use and protection of the environment and on the handling of natural hazards. The Research Unit Forest and Soil Ecology studies the impact of environmental changes on biogeochemical cycles. Within the Long-term Forest Ecosystem Research (LWF) we offer a tenure track position as a Research Scientist in Nutrient Cycling 80% (f/m/d) You will be responsible for monitoring atmospheric deposition and soil solution chemistry across Switzerland. Your scientific responsibilities include the adequate sampling in the field and the analysis of samples in the laboratory. You will coordinate the involved technical staff, maintain the local database and forward the data to the European ICP Forests database. You will actively participate in the ICP Forests Expert Panels "Deposition" and "Soil and Soil Solution". By applying complex modelling, you will evaluate the data regarding the long-term development of nutrient fluxes and cycles. You will successfully acquire third-party funding for add-on studies, e.g. on nutrient dynamics in the rhizosphere or on gas exchange between soil and atmosphere. You hold a Ph.D. degree in environmental sciences with in-depth knowledge of soil science, biogeochemical cycles and analytical-chemical methods. You are efficient in dealing with large amounts of data and have good statistical knowledge as well as experience in modelling biogeochemical processes. Furthermore, you know how to publish your results in international journals and make them accessible to stakeholders in forestry practice, politics and the public. Your skills as a good team player are in demand both in the collaboration with the other scientific staff of the LWF and in the coordination of technical staff. In addition, you possess excellent English skills and a good command of German.

Job offer: The research unit Forest and Soil Ecology assess the impact of climate change and management on forests and their soils. The Soil Biogeochemistry group at the Birmensdorf site is looking for a candidate to start in January 2026 as a PhD student in Soil Biogeochemistry (f/m/d) You will be working within the "FutureForests Doctoral Network", an EU-funded Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions (MSCA) initiative, which aims to train the next generation of scientists in assessing the impacts of global change on European forests utilizing a unique network of European flagship field forest facilities. Based at WSL Birmensdorf, you will investigate the effects of drought on organic matter turnover and carbon storage in the soil in the VPDrought experiment (Valais, Switzerland). The research will involve measuring soil microbial communities, as well as carbon and nitrogen pools and fluxes, using stable isotope and radiocarbon techniques. Complementary analysis will be conducted at selected manipulation facilities in Estonia (University of Tartu), Austria (University of Innsbruck) and Germany (Technical University of Munich) to compare the impacts of recurrent droughts on soil processes under global change. You hold a master’s degree in environmental science, soil science, microbiology, or a related discipline. You demonstrate strong communication skills, self-motivation, an aptitude for field research, and a commitment to collaborative, interdisciplinary work. Good written and spoken English skills are required. Moreover, you should comply with the MSCA mobility rules: you must not have resided or carried out your main activity (work, studies, etc.) in the country of the recruiting organization for more than 12 months in the 36 months immediately before your recruitment date (January 2026).
