"Global Deep Soil 2100" is a network for whole-ecosystem warming experiments. The aim of DeepSoil 2100 is to bring together researchers working on long-term soil experiments particularly focused on deep soil horizons (at least 1 m). The year '2100' was chosen because IPCC scenarios run until 2100. We welcome whole ecosystem warming manipulations, with or without other manipulations such as water and carbon dioxide concentrations, and studying responses of plants, soil biogeochemistry, ecology, etc.
Globally, there are less than a dozen whole-ecosystem warming experiments but not all researchers know about each other. To introduce experiments and involved scientists, we started video meetings at the end of 2020. This effort brought together experimentalists, modelers and data users into this "whole-ecosystem warming network", to share practical experience on field experiments, data reporting, discuss observations and results and explore synergies regarding tools, knowledge, and data sharing and interpretation. We hope that this network will serve as a basis for future data syntheses and coordinated sampling efforts.
