thousands of species and millions of individual organisms that form dynamic ecosystems harbouring an extraordinary diversity of life. This intricate web of life plays a critical role in maintaining the planet's health, climate and productivity: soil hosts a quarter of all life on the planet and directly or indirectly supports 95 per cent of the food we eat.</p> <p>Data on soil biodiversity thus provides unique evidence for forming insights into broader ecological patterns, interactions and processes. By working with expert communities like <a href="https://www.globalsoilbiodiversity.org/soilbon">SoilBON</a> and the <a href="https://www.globalsoilbiodiversity.org/">Global Soil Biodiversity Initiative</a> to integrate soil biodiversity data with data from other environments, GBIF helps reveal a more comprehensive understanding of the complex sources of life鈥攐n and in鈥擡arth.</p> </div>
