Moderate time grazing in the warm season maintained the diversity and complexity of soil microorganisms by regulating nutrient cycling and decomposition function

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 39, Issue 10, Page 2772-2789, October 2025.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract The soil microbial community plays an important role in maintaining the functional balance of grassland ecosystems. However, it is unclear how soil microbial diversity and complexity change in the desert steppe under different grazing times and what ecosystem factors ...

长江上游典型区亚高山不同林型土壤的结构性与水分效应

open access: yesShuitu Baochi Xuebao, 2002
森林土壤具有良好的水文生态功能,其结构特征影响土壤的水分物理性质。研究了长江上游地区的贡嘎山东坡亚高山不同林型下土壤的结构特征,并采用平均结构直径和结构分形特征进行评价,同时还研究了土壤渗透性、持水性等水分特性。研究结果表明:成熟阶段的混交林地土壤结构性最好,具有较强的水文生态功能;采伐迹地最差;其他林地类型介于其间。在该地区生态环境受到较好的保护,成熟混交林和过熟林占80%以上,因此总体上说该区的土壤结构状况和水分效应也较好,但由于该区生态环境脆弱,仍需加强管护。

Reoccurrence of Dust Storms in South Asia and Their Implications for Vegetation Health 南亚沙尘暴的再次出现及其对植被健康的影响

open access: yesIntegrative Conservation, Volume 4, Issue 3, Page 362-380, September 2025.
Occurrences of dust storms and long‐distance movement of dust across landscapes is constantly increasing in south Asia. This dust is expected to have profound impact on vegetation health and sustainability as dust may contribute to nutrient budgets of the forest ecosystems, while it could impart various stresses to the plants.

土壤孔隙结构与土壤微环境和有机碳周转关系的研究进展

open access: yesShuitu Baochi Xuebao, 2019
土壤结构是土壤功能的基础,不仅影响土壤养分的供应、水分的保持及渗透、气体的交换等过程,还为土壤微生物提供了物理生境,并调控土壤有机碳的周转这一关键过程。土壤的孔隙特征能够直接、真实地反映土壤结构的好坏;用土壤的孔隙特征作为试验指标能更好地反映土壤结构对这些过程的调节作用。在此基础上,将高度异质性的土壤孔隙结构同土壤微环境的变化和土壤有机碳的周转过程进行定量分析,对深入了解土壤结构在土壤生态系统中的功能至关重要。因此,着重从土壤孔隙结构对土壤微环境的影响及其与有机碳的关系两方面展开 ...

Vegetation dominantly shapes the elevational patterns of archaeal and protistan communities and their ecological functions in the Hengduan Mountains, Tibetan Plateau

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 39, Issue 9, Page 2327-2341, September 2025.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract While elevational patterns of soil bacterial and fungal communities in mountain ecosystems have been well documented, the assembly processes of soil archaeal and protistan communities, and their linkage with ecosystem multifunctionality (EMF), remain poorly understood ...

Plant–microbe interactions drive the rhizosphere microbial assembly and nitrogen cycling in a subtropical forest

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 39, Issue 5, Page 1274-1287, May 2025.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Interactions between plants and soil microorganisms in the rhizosphere are vital for maintaining the nutrient cycle and stability of terrestrial ecosystems. Nitrogen, closely related to carbon (C) cycling and ecosystem productivity, undergoes transformation by soil ...
