El revestimiento del suelo ayuda a mantener a raya las tormentas de polvo
Science (New York, N.Y.)
|May 19, 2022
Resumen
La descomposición de las bioescorpas, que son revestimientos vitales del suelo, expone los suelos de las tierras secas a la erosión eólica. Esta degradación compromete la estabilidad del suelo y aumenta las emisiones de polvo.
Área de la Ciencia:
- Ciencias de la Tierra
- Ciencias del suelo
- Ciencias del medio ambiente
Sus antecedentes:
- Las costras biológicas del suelo (biocostas) son comunidades complejas de cianobacterias, líquenes y musgos que estabilizan los suelos secos.
- Los biocrusts juegan un papel crítico en los ecosistemas áridos y semiáridos al prevenir la erosión del suelo y retener la humedad.

02:23The Soil Ecosystem
22.1K
Plants obtain inorganic minerals and water from the soil, which acts as a natural medium for land plants. The composition and quality of soil depend not only on the chemical constituents but also on the presence of living organisms. In general, soils contain three major components:

01:57Adaptations that Reduce Water Loss
26.4K
Though evaporation from plant leaves drives transpiration, it also results in loss of water. Because water is critical for photosynthetic reactions and other cellular processes, evolutionary pressures on plants in different environments have driven the acquisition of adaptations that reduce water loss.

Bioremediation is the use of prokaryotes, fungi, or plants to remove pollutants from the environment. This process has been used to remove harmful toxins in groundwater as a byproduct of agricultural run-off and also to clean up oil spills.
