[Esip-soil-informatics] Upcoming presentation: Unifying themes of NRCS databases

[Todd-Brown, Kathe]

Hi everyone,

Please don’t widely distribute the recording for today’s meeting. It’s still going through the USDA-NRCS release process 😃 But I hope that Dylan will let us know if it goes through and we can post it to the YouTube channel! It was a fantastic overview of the NRCS soil data holdings!

Best,
-Kathe

A study, published in Ecological Economics, focused on European residents, and determined that happiness correlated with a specific number of bird species.

"According to our findings, the happiest Europeans are those who can experience numerous different bird species in their daily life, or who live in near-natural surroundings that are home to many species," says lead author Joel Methorst, a doctoral researcher at the Senckenberg Biodiversity and Climate Research Center, the iDiv and the Goethe University in Frankfurt.

The authors calculated that being around fourteen additional bird species provided as much satisfaction as earning an additional $150 a month.

For the study, researchers used data from the 2012 "European Quality of Life Survey" to explore the connection between species diversity around homes, towns and cites, and how it relates to satisfaction. More than 26,000 adults from 26 European countries were surveyed.
