Urban soil research and education

I bet you didn’t know that contamination in urban parks concentrates in lower-income, historically marginalized neighborhoods.
That is what our data shows across five Chicago parks, 233 samples, seven trace elements measured with pXRF. I presented this work today at IUSS - International Union of Soil Sciences in Nanjing, China.
Full paper with Eriell Jenkins, Holly Heafner, Victoire Daniela Soumano, and James Montgomery is coming out soon in iScience.
A scientific paper requires far more than writing results into a document.
Researchers need accurate citations, transparent data, permission to use images, proper statistics, and clear authorship contributions.
Even small problems like edited figures, missing references, or unclear methods can lead to rejection or retraction.
Publishing depends not only on discovery, but on proving the work deserves trust.
