A review by Kingston et al. (2025), published in the Journal of Soils and Sediments, found that integrating biochar with stable isotope techniques shows strong potential to enhance soil biodiversity and ecosystem functioning in regenerative viticulture under climate change while enabling improved monitoring of soil–plant–microbe interactions. Headline Findings Methods The study uses a literature review…
