High Tree Species Diversity Promotes Thermal Enhancement Response of Microbial Carbon Use Efficiency
Advanced Science, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Predicting soil carbon dynamics under warming is constrained by limited understanding of microbial thermal adaptation, particularly whether microbial carbon use efficiency (CUE) can adapt to warming and how plant diversity modulates this response. Using soils from a natural tree species diversity gradient in a subtropical forest, we combined a

Effect of milk replacer allowance on calf faecal bacterial community profiles and fermentation
Animal Microbiome, 2021 Background The nutrition of calves from birth until weaning is predominantly from liquid (milk or milk-based) feeds. Liquid feed allowances are often restricted during artificial rearing to accelerate the development of the rumen by promoting solid feed ...

Groundwater Rise Sustains the World's Largest Alpine Water System Under Global Warming
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Shallow groundwater depth (SGWD) across the non‐permafrost plains of the Qinghai–Xizang Plateau decreased at averagely 0.02 m year−1, adding 31.44 Gt of freshwater storage from 2000 to 2020 and sustaining ∼53 500 km2 of alpine ecosystems. A vadose‐zone capacity of 426.6 Gt reveals these aquifers as promising reservoirs, highlighting groundwater's ...

Rainfall Shapes the Diversity of Soil Nitrogen‐Fixing Microorganisms Worldwide
Advanced Science, EarlyView.This study reveals the distinctive pattern and mechanism of rainfall driving the global biodiversity and biogeography of soil potential N‐fixing microorganisms, and constructs the theoretical framework. The results guide us on how to maintain ecosystem productivity under future climate changes (e.g., whether a specific region needs more N fertilizers ...

Identification of Weeds Based on Hyperspectral Imaging and Machine Learning
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021 Weeds can be major environmental and economic burdens in New Zealand. Traditional methods of weed control including manual and chemical approaches can be time consuming and costly. Some chemical herbicides may have negative environmental and human health

Constrained Forest Methane Sink by Thermal Adaptation of Soil Methanotrophs
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Climate warming can stimulate methanotroph‐mediated CH4 oxidation in forest soils, thereby mitigating the increase in atmospheric CH4 concentrations. By integrating evidence from a macro‐climatic thermal gradient and a 70‐day incubation experiment, this study demonstrates that microbial methanotrophs can adapt to long‐term temperature changes at the ...

Soil Nitrogen Treatment Alters Microbiome Networks Across Farm Niches
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022 Agriculture is fundamental for food production, and microbiomes support agriculture through multiple essential ecosystem services. Despite the importance of individual (i.e., niche specific) agricultural microbiomes, microbiome interactions across niches

Ex‐Ante Assessment of Farm Resilience to Institutional Shocks: A Modeling Approach
Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Using the agent‐based model SWISSland, we simulate farm‐level responses and interactions under two institutional shocks: tariff reductions and direct payment reductions. Using a framework we developed, we assess resilience capacities, resilience attributes, and the provision of private and public goods, following the shock.
