Elevation gradient shapes microbial carbon and phosphorous limitations in the Helan Mountains, Northwest China

Frontiers in Environmental Science, 2022
Soil extracellular ecoenzymatic activities (EEA) are major players in the biogeochemical cycles and are closely related to the metabolic demand and nutrient supply in microbes.

Effects of Plastic Film Mulching on Soil Enzyme Activities and Stoichiometry in Dryland Agroecosystems. [PDF]

Plants (Basel), 2022
Soil extracellular enzymes are pivotal for microbial nutrient cycling in the ecosystem. In order to study the effects of different nitrogen application rates under plastic film mulching on soil extracellular enzyme activities and stoichiometry, five ...

Effects of Canada Goldenrod Invasion on Soil Extracellular Enzyme Activities and Ecoenzymatic Stoichiometry [PDF]

Sustainability, 2021
The rapid expansion of Canada goldenrod (Solidago canadensis L.) in China has drawn considerable attention as it may not only decrease vegetation diversity but also alter soil nutrient cycling in the affected ecosystems. Soil extracellular enzymes mediate nutrient cycling by catalyzing the organic matter decomposition; however, the mechanisms by which ...

Linkages of Enzymatic Activity and Stoichiometry with Soil Physical-Chemical Properties under Long-Term Manure Application to Saline-Sodic Soil on the Songnen Plain

Agronomy, 2023
Excess Na+ and high pH result in poor structures in Saline-Sodic soils, which reduces extracellular enzyme activity (EEA) and causes nutrient limitations.

Freshwater mussels promote functional redundancy in sediment microbial communities under different nutrient regimes

Functional Ecology, Volume 37, Issue 11, Page 2940-2952, November 2023., 2023
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Animals are a critical component of biogeochemical cycles. While animal mediated fluxes of nutrients and energy have received considerable attention, the impacts of these fluxes on microbial community structure and function are comparatively understudied.

Microbial carbon mineralization in tropical lowland and montane forest soils of Peru [PDF]

, 2016
Climate change is affecting the amount and complexity of plant inputs to tropical forest soils. This is likely to influence the carbon (C) balance of these ecosystems by altering decomposition processes e.g., "positive priming effects" that accelerate ...

Imprint of tree species mycorrhizal association on microbial‐mediated enzyme activity and stoichiometry

Functional Ecology, Volume 37, Issue 5, Page 1366-1376, May 2023., 2023
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Understanding the effects of tree species and their mycorrhizal association on soil processes is critical for predicting the ecosystem consequences of species shifts owing to global change and forest management decisions.

Limited Potential for Mineralization of Permafrost Peatland Soil Carbon Following Thermokarst: Evidence From Anoxic Incubation and Priming Experiments

Journal of Geophysical Research: Biogeosciences, Volume 127, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Permafrost thaw in peatlands risks emitting vast stores of soil organic carbon (SOC) as greenhouse gases to the atmosphere, yet anoxic conditions and low peat quality may prevent rapid SOC loss. To assess differences in anaerobic SOC mineralization following thaw and vulnerability of previously‐frozen peat, we incubated peat (5° and 14°C) from

Advancing river corridor science beyond disciplinary boundaries with an inductive approach to catalyse hypothesis generation

Hydrological Processes, Volume 36, Issue 4, April 2022., 2022
Visualization of the 672 relationships identified linking the 157 variables measured across 62 sites in this study. Abstract A unified conceptual framework for river corridors requires synthesis of diverse site‐, method‐ and discipline‐specific findings.
