Rust in soils - What happens when microorganisms breathe iron?
Ғылым және технология
The ERC-funded research project IRMIDYN (Iron mineral dynamics in soils and sediments: Moving the frontier toward in‐situ studies) has been a major part of the work conducted by the Soil Chemistry Group in D-USYS since the project’s start in 2018. Recently, Prof. Ruben Kretzschmar and his team worked with independent Filmmaker Markus Tischner (Frisbee Medien, Germany) to produce a 14-minute outreach film about IRMIDYN. The film shows the team‘s research activities in the laboratory and at one of the field sites in the German Wadden Sea. It explains their new approach to study iron mineral transformations in soils and sediments and the relevance for understanding biogeochemical cycles.

Informative and well-presented video 👏
Das ist ja interessant. Hier im Wendland beobachte ich rostfarbenen Schaum auf den Entwässerungsgräben, der kohlenstoffreichen, ehemaligen Niedermoore. Erst dachte ich dass es Rotalgen sind, die durch die Übergüllung gedeihen. Aber eine Geruchsprobe ergab einen eindeutigen Rostgeruch. Dieser Beitrag liefert eine Erklärungsoption.
