Redefinition and global estimation of basal ecosystem respiration rate [PDF]

open access: yesGlobal Biogeochemical Cycles, 2011
Basal ecosystem respiration rate (BR), the ecosystem respiration rate at a given temperature, is a common and important parameter in empirical models for quantifying ecosystem respiration (ER) globally. Numerous studies have indicated that BR varies in space.

Application of compost in spruce forests: effects on soil respiration, basal respiration and microbial biomass

open access: yesForest Ecology and Management, 2002
Compost from separated organic household waste contains considerable amount of nutrients such as N, P, K, Mg and Ca and may be used for amelioration of degraded forest soils. Our objective was to assess the effect of compost application on soil respiration, soil basal respiration and soil microbial biomass of two mature Norway spruce plantations in ...

Is soil basal respiration a good indicator of soil pollution?

Geoderma, 2016
Abstract Metal(loid)s are common pollutants in soils, causing a significant toxicological risk to living organisms and to the ecosystems. Soil basal respiration (SBR) is broadly used as indicator of metal(loid) stress in polluted soils, although the correlation with toxicity gives in many cases contradictory results.

Biodegradation kinetics of monosaccharides and their contribution to basal respiration in tropical forest soils [PDF]

open access: yesSoil Science and Plant Nutrition, 2011
Low molecular weight (LMW) organic compounds in soil solution are easily biodegradable and could fuel respiration by soil microorganisms. Our main aim was to study the mineralization kinetics of monosaccharides using 14C-radiolabelled glucose. Based on these data and the soil solution concentrations of monosaccharides, we evaluated the contribution of ...

Genomic and Phenomic Correlations in the Respiration of Basal Cell Carcinomas

2003
Early last century Warburg1 described differences in metabolism between normal and cancer cells, however subsequent research did not bear out what he considered to be the “primary cause of cancer,” i.e., the replacement of respiration by fermentation 2.

Measuring basal soil respiration across Europe: Do incubation temperature and incubation period matter? [PDF]

open access: yesEcological Indicators, 2014
The European Commission recognises the essential role of soil biology in soil functioning and delivery of ecosystem services, but information is currently lacking evaluate of how these vary across soil and land-use types at a European scale. This study evaluated the measurement of the initial rate of soil basal respiration (BR) as a potential ...

Response of mycorrhizal, rhizosphere and soil basal respiration to temperature and photosynthesis in a barley field

open access: yesSoil Biology and Biochemistry, 2007
Abstract The mycorrhizal, rhizosphere and basal components of soil respiration were partitioned in a barley field experiment with the main objective of determining the controlling effects of photosynthetic activity and temperature on soil respiration sources.
