Litter diversity accelerates labile carbon but slows recalcitrant carbon decomposition [PDF]
In biodiverse ecosystems, leaf litter of different plant species decomposes in mixtures, for which decomposition rates notoriously deviate from that expected from monospecific treatments. Despite important research efforts in past decades, these litter diversity effects remain difficult to predict.

Warming and Labile Substrate Addition Alter Enzyme Activities and Composition of Soil Organic Carbon [PDF]
Warming can increase the efflux of carbon dioxide (CO2) from soils and can potentially feedback to climate change. In addition to warming, the input of labile carbon can enhance the microbial activity by stimulating the co-metabolism of recalcitrant soil

Microbial diversity and the lability of dissolved organic carbon [PDF]
Marine metagenomics is steadily unveiling the phylogenetic diversity and metabolic potential of the microbial plankton. Our awareness that planktonic Bacteria and Archaea (bacterioplankton) dominate this diversity only underscores our inability to answer a basic ecological question: what are bacterioplankton eating?

Labile carbon limits late winter microbial activity near Arctic treeline. [PDF]
Soil microbial communities remain active throughout much of the Arctic winter, and Arctic winters are warming dramatically. Here, the authors show that persistently warm winter soils can lead to labile carbon starvation and reduced microbial respiration,

Scarce carbon dioxide (CO2) emission data, soil organic carbon (Corg) and labile Corg pool index for croplands in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) limits our ability to define regional CO2 flux and mitigation prospects provided by biochar amendment.

In response to land degradation and the decline of farmers’ income, some low quality croplands were converted to forage or grassland in Northeast China. However, it is unclear how such land use conversions influence soil nutrients.

Dynamics of labile soil organic carbon during the development of mangrove and salt marsh ecosystems
Labile fractions of soil carbon pools are sensitive to environmental changes, which would influence the stabilization of soil carbon. However, it is unclear whether the dynamics of labile organic carbon (LOC) and soil organic carbon (SOC) are coupled and

Study of soil organic carbon pools is helpful to understand the mechanism of carbon sequestration in soil. It was hypothesized that different management practices and sources of organics applied to soil will change the carbon allocation into various ...
