Two thousand buried underpants mapped the hidden life in the soil

More than 2,000 pairs of cotton underpants were buried in Switzerland in a scientific initiative called the "Underpants Test," launched in 2021 by the University of Zurich and Agroscope, with the participation of approximately 1,000 citizen scientists.
