Battelle-Managed Observatory Provides Soil Samples to Support Carbon Capture Research

A research team has used samples from a Battelle-managed network of environmental observing sites in an effort to analyze the role of deep soil minerals and climate in carbon sequestration.

Battelle said Tuesday researchers Marc Kramer and Oliver Chadwick utilized megapit soils from the National Ecological Observatory Network and a set of global soil data for the “Climate-Driven Thresholds in Reactive Mineral Retention of Soil Carbon at the Global Scale” study.
