Responses to the Impact of Drought on Carbon and Water Use Efficiency in Inner Mongolia

Land, 2023
The dynamics of plants’ carbon and water use efficiency and their responses to drought are crucial to the sustainable development of arid and semi-arid environments.

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 ...

Assessment of the Carbon and Nitrogen Mineralisation of Digestates Elaborated from Distinct Feedstock Profiles

Agronomy, 2022
The carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) mineralisation rates of five digestates were studied and compared with pig slurry, compost, and a solid fraction of digestate in aerobic incubation experiments.

Microbial Necromass in Soils—Linking Microbes to Soil Processes and Carbon Turnover

Frontiers in Environmental Science, 2021
The organic matter of living plants is the precursor material of the organic matter stored in terrestrial soil ecosystems. Although a great deal of knowledge exists on the carbon turnover processes of plant material, some of the processes of soil organic

Does metabolic water control the phosphate oxygen isotopes of microbial cells?

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2023
The oxygen isotopes ratio (δ18O) of microbial cell water strongly controls the δ18O of cell phosphate and of other oxygen-carrying moieties. Recently it was suggested that the isotopic ratio in cell water is controlled by metabolic water, which is the ...

Tree species diversity increases soil microbial carbon use efficiency in a subtropical forest

Global Change Biology, 2023
Plant communities strongly influence soil microbial communities and, in turn, soil carbon (C) cycling. Microbial carbon use efficiency (CUE) is an important parameter for predicting soil C accumulation, yet how plant and soil microbial community traits ...

Fungal interactions reduce carbon use efficiency

Ecology Letters, 2017
AbstractThe efficiency by which fungi decompose organic matter contributes to the amount of carbon that is retained in biomass vs. lost to the atmosphere as respiration. This carbon use efficiency (CUE) is affected by various abiotic conditions, including temperature and nutrient availability.

Long-Term Tillage and Irrigation Management Practices: Impact on Carbon Budgeting and Energy Dynamics under Rice–Wheat Rotation of Indian Mid-Himalayan Region

Conservation, 2022
In modern agriculture, reducing the carbon footprint and emission of greenhouse gases with greater energy efficiency are major issues for achieving the sustainability of agricultural production systems. To address this issue, a long-term field experiment
