Spatio-Temporal Dynamic Characteristics of Carbon Use Efficiency in a Virgin Forest Area of Southeast Tibet

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2023
The sequestration of carbon in forests plays a crucial role in mitigating global climate change and achieving carbon neutrality goals. Carbon use efficiency (CUE) is an essential metric used to evaluate the carbon sequestration capacity and efficiency of

The Variations of Satellite-Based Ecosystem Water Use and Carbon Use Efficiency and Their Linkages with Climate and Human Drivers in the Songnen Plain, China

open access: yesAdvances in Meteorology, 2019
Ecosystem water use efficiency (WUE) and carbon use efficiency (CUE), as two of the most important ecological indicators of an ecosystem, represent the carbon assimilation rate of unit water consumption and the capacity of transferring carbon from the ...

Study on the relationship between ecological spatial network structure and regional carbon use Efficiency: A case study of the Wuding river basin

open access: yesEcological Indicators, 2023
Plant carbon use efficiency (CUE) reflects the carbon assimilation ability and carbon sequestration potential of organisms, and is an important quantitative index in ecology. Therefore, investigating CUE can better understand and explore ecosystem carbon

Carbon Use Efficiency and Its Temperature Sensitivity Covary in Soil Bacteria

open access: yesmBio, 2020
The strategy that microbial decomposers take with respect to using substrate for growth versus maintenance is one essential biological determinant of the propensity of carbon to remain in soil.

Snow tussocks, chaos, and the evolution of mast seeding [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
One hitherto intractable problem in studying mast seeding (synchronous intermittent heavy flowering by a population of perennial plants) is determining the relative roles of weather, plant reserves, and evolutionary selective pressures such as predator ...
