NATCITIES-24060685 Supplementary Information Section A: Multifunctionality

This document contains Supplementary Information (Section A) for manuscript the NATCITIES-24060685, in which the calculations for the multi-functionality score based on three individual functions derived from select soil function indicators and properties.All tabs ending in "... math" include the averages and standard deviations of, if not, the original data of each indicator property. Further calculations are carried out in the tabs per function.All tabs ending in "...results" include the transition of indicator properties into the results for individual functions.The "multifunc score" takes the individual function scores and calculates the multifunctionality score.<br>Abbreviations used throughout:gwc - addition of compostgac - addition of compost + GACgb1 - addition of compost + WW850gb2 - addition of compost + GW680gb3 - addition of compost + WW540g12 - addition of compost + WW850 + GW680g13 - addition of compost + WW850 + WW540g23 - addition of compost + GW680+ WW540<br><br>We evaluate two wood-waste (WW) biochars (high and low temperature; WW|850 and WW|540) and one green-waste (GW) biochar (GW|680) in our constructed soil mixtures for soil ecosystem functions, comparing the various combinations with a manufactured pollutant-adsorption benchmark, granulated activated carbon (GAC) and a low-cost option of utilizing only municipal green waste compost.<br><br>
