Soil respiration in a northeastern US temperate forest: a 22‐year synthesis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
To better understand how forest management, phenology, vegetation type, and actual and simulated climatic change affect seasonal and inter‐annual variations in soil respiration (Rs), we analyzed more than 100,000 individual measurements of soil ...

Harvesting benefits: Exploring the effects of second‐best policies on enhancing soil organic carbon stocks in agriculture

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Agricultural subsidies can be an effective policy tool to enhance soil organic carbon sequestration. This paper assesses the effectiveness of a second‐best hypothetical policy which subsidizes additional canola hectares optimally for each soil zone in Saskatchewan in an effort to increase soil organic carbon.

Comprehensive framework for assessing and optimizing existing research networks

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Conservation, monitoring, and research networks, or collections of ecological research sites unified under a common mission of data collection or a research mission, are essential infrastructure for understanding large landscapes. However, most networks developed opportunistically over decades rather than through systematic design, creating ...

Integrating remote‐sensing and meteorological data to identify key drivers of the potential distribution of a grassland grasshopper

open access: yesEcological Entomology, EarlyView.
An ensemble model achieved excellent accuracy (AUC = 0.973) in predicting the potential distribution of O. decorus asiaticus. Climate (temperature & August precipitation) and vegetation type are the primary drivers defining the species' suitable habitats.

How to produce more biomass for direct seeding mulched based cropping system in sub-saharian Africa ? Example in North Cameroun [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
In North Cameroon, from 2001 to 2006, more than 250 farmers tried direct seeding mulchbased cropping systems (DMC) in their fields. DMC systems were based on farmer traditional rotation i.e. cereal//cotton.

Effects of nitrogen fertilizer rate on dry matter yield, nutritive values and nitrate nitrogen of Guineagrass (Panicum maximum Jacq.) extremely late cultivar “Umaku” as a summer annual grass in a warm temperate zone

open access: yesGrassland Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Cultivation as a summer annual grass in temperate regions of new extremely late‐maturing guineagrass cultivar “Umaku” without heading with fertilizer application entails risks of toxic nitrate nitrogen (nitrate‐N) concentration in the grass.

Aboveground biomass calibration of sub-alpine shrub species

open access: yes, 2023
Shrub encroachment can be described as the increase in density, cover, and biomass of shrubby plants. Over the last decade shrub encroachment is observed over a wide range of different ecosystems globally. However, it is poorly known how this phenomenon changes ecosystem functions and processes.

Tree growth response and adaptation to climate change and climate extremes: From canopy to stem

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
This review synthesizes the responses and adaptations of tree growth, including canopy phenology, intra‐annual wood formation dynamics, and annual stem growth, to climate change and climate extremes. It highlights key knowledge gaps for future research to support sustainable forest management and enhance forest carbon storage under ongoing climate ...
