Microbial carbon use efficiency predicted from genome-scale metabolic models [PDF]

Nature Communications, 2019
Microbial respiration releases carbon from the soil. Here, the authors estimate bacterial carbon use efficiency in soils for over 200 species using constraint-based modeling, incorporate the values into an ecosystem model, and find that shifts in ...

Soil Microbial Carbon Use Efficiency in Natural Terrestrial Ecosystems [PDF]

Biology
Soil microbial carbon use efficiency (CUE) is the ratio of carbon allocated to microbial growth to that taken up by microorganisms. Soil microbial CUE affects terrestrial ecosystem processes such as greenhouse gas emissions, carbon turnover, and ...

Modeling adaptation of carbon use efficiency in microbial communities [PDF]

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2014
In new microbial-biogeochemical models, microbial carbon use efficiency (CUE) is often assumed to decline with increasing temperature. Under this assumption, soil carbon losses under warming are small because microbial biomass declines. Yet there is also

Ecosystem carbon use efficiency in ecologically vulnerable areas in China: Variation and influencing factors [PDF]

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Ecologically vulnerable areas (EVAs) are regions with ecosystems that are fragile and vulnerable to degradation under external disturbances, e.g., environmental changes and human activities.

Active microbial population dynamics and life strategies drive the enhanced carbon use efficiency in high-organic matter soils [PDF]

mBio
Microbial carbon use efficiency (CUE) is a critical parameter that controls carbon storage in soil, but many uncertainties remain concerning adaptations of microbial communities to long-term fertilization that impact CUE.

Biotic and abiotic factors affecting soil microbial carbon use efficiency [PDF]

Frontiers in Plant Science
Soil microbial carbon use efficiency (CUE) refers to the efficiency of microorganisms in converting absorbed carbon into their own biomass carbon. Soil microbial CUE is a key parameter to understanding the soil carbon cycle.

Nitrogen Deposition Enhances the Positive Contribution of CO₂ Fertilization to China’s Carbon and Water Use Efficiencies

Land, 2023
With climate change, Nitrogen deposition (ND) and carbon dioxide (CO2) have increased significantly, but the effects of ND and CO2 fertilization on carbon-use efficiency (CUE) and water-use efficiency (WUE) are still unclear. Therefore, the effects of ND

Estimating ecosystem maximum light use efficiency based on the water use efficiency principle

Environmental Research Letters, 2021
Light use efficiency (LUE) defines the vegetation efficiency of converting radiative energy into biochemical energy through photosynthesis. Estimating the maximum LUE ( ε _max ) is critical yet challenging for quantifying gross primary production (GPP ...
