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

open access: yesFrontiers 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

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

open access: yesBiology
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 ...

Soil microbial carbon use efficiency and the constraints

open access: yesAnnals of Microbiology
Background Microbial contributions to soil organic carbon formation have received increasing attention, and microbial carbon use efficiency is positively correlated with soil organic carbon storage.

Microbial carbon use efficiency promotes global soil carbon storage. [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 2023
AbstractSoils store more carbon than other terrestrial ecosystems1,2. How soil organic carbon (SOC) forms and persists remains uncertain1,3, which makes it challenging to understand how it will respond to climatic change3,4. It has been suggested that soil microorganisms play an important role in SOC formation, preservation and loss5–7.

Evidence for strong seasonality in the carbon storage and carbon use efficiency of an Amazonian forest [PDF]

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology, 2014
AbstractThe relative contribution of gross primary production and ecosystem respiration to seasonal changes in the net carbon flux of tropical forests remains poorly quantified by both modelling and field studies. We use data assimilation to combine nine ecological time series from an eastern Amazonian forest, with mass balance constraints from an ...

Transcriptomic markers of fungal growth, respiration and carbon-use efficiency. [PDF]

open access: yesFEMS Microbiol Lett, 2021
ABSTRACT Fungal metabolic carbon acquisition and its subsequent partitioning between biomass production and respiration, i.e. the carbon-use efficiency (CUE), are central parameters in biogeochemical modeling. However, current available techniques for estimating these parameters are all associated with practical and theoretical ...

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

open access: yesFrontiers 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.

Emerging multiscale insights on microbial carbon use efficiency in the land carbon cycle. [PDF]

open access: yesNat Commun
AbstractMicrobial carbon use efficiency (CUE) affects the fate and storage of carbon in terrestrial ecosystems, but its global importance remains uncertain. Accurately modeling and predicting CUE on a global scale is challenging due to inconsistencies in measurement techniques and the complex interactions of climatic, edaphic, and biological factors ...

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

open access: yesmBio
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.

Microbial diversity drives carbon use efficiency in a model soil. [PDF]

open access: yesNat Commun, 2020
AbstractEmpirical evidence for the response of soil carbon cycling to the combined effects of warming, drought and diversity loss is scarce. Microbial carbon use efficiency (CUE) plays a central role in regulating the flow of carbon through soil, yet how biotic and abiotic factors interact to drive it remains unclear.
