Versatile nitrate-respiring heterotrophs are previously concealed contributors to sulfur cycle
Abstract Heterotrophic denitrifiers play crucial roles in global carbon and nitrogen cycling. However, their inability to oxidize sulfide renders them vulnerable to this toxic molecule, which inhibits the key enzymatic reaction responsible for reducing nitrous oxide (N2O), thereby raising greenhouse gas emissions.

Abstract The carbon sequestration capacity of the biological carbon pump (BCP) is determined by surface ocean carbon fixation and the transportation of fixed carbon to the ocean interior, which is closely linked to the trophic structure of planktonic ecosystem.

Hydrological controls on heterotrophic soil respiration across an agricultural landscape
Abstract Climate change is expected to increase the intensity of precipitation, but our ability to model the consequences for soil respiration are limited by a lack of data from soils that are saturated and draining. In this study, we used large intact soil columns (28 × 30 cm) to 1) quantify changes in CO 2 flux as soils drain from saturated ...

Forest Reorganization Sustains Carbon Sequestration Under Climate Change
Abstract Forests currently mitigate anthropogenic climate change by sequestering substantial amounts of carbon, but future carbon dynamics are expected to vary across the temperate forest biome. Previously cold‐limited ecosystems with low disturbance activity could increase their carbon uptake, while water‐limited ecosystems with high disturbance ...

Estimating heterotrophic respiration at large scales: challenges, approaches, and next steps
Heterotrophic respiration (HR), the aerobic and anaerobic processes mineralizing organic matter, is a key carbon flux but one impossible to measure at scales significantly larger than small experimental plots.

Abstract Increasing our knowledge about the structure and metabolism of the microbial plankton community in coastal upwelling systems is essential for efficiently managing the resources of these highly productive ecosystems. Here we explore seasonal variations of this community in the NW Iberian coastal upwelling system by measuring variables informing

Improving Prediction of Heterotrophic Respiration in Response to Altered Precipitation
Abstract Soil heterotrophic respiration (Rh) is a key process in the global carbon (C) cycle, strongly influenced by interactions between soil temperature and moisture. It is well documented how soil temperature regulates Rh. However, temperature interacts with soil moisture to regulate Rh via dynamic and complex microbial mechanisms, leading to ...
