How soil erosion in tropical regions affects agriculture, water balance and climate
It‘s a change that often goes unnoticed: while tropical agricultural regions are delivering ever higher yields, soils may be changing at a faster pace than we think — and not for the better. From March 2026, a new Emmy Noether Research Group at the University of Augsburg, led by soil scientist Dr. Pedro Batista, will focus on this barely visible but globally significant process.
