Resolving the intricate role of climate in litter decomposition [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
With approximately 60 Pg of carbon (C) released as CO2 annually, the decomposition of dead organic matter feeds the major terrestrial global CO2 flux to the atmosphere. Macroclimate control over this critical C flux facilitates the parametrization of the

TeaTime4Schools: Using Data Mining Techniques to Model Litter Decomposition in Austrian Urban School Soils

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2021
Litter decomposition plays a pivotal role in the global carbon cycle, but is difficult to measure on a global scale, especially by citizen scientists.

Global meta-analysis reveals differential effects of climate and litter quality on soil fauna-mediated litter decomposition across size classes

open access: yesGeoderma
Litter decomposition is significantly influenced by soil fauna, litter quality, and climate. Effects of soil fauna on litter decomposition are largely dependent on the size classes of the fauna.

The effects of N‐addition on litter mixture effects depend on decomposition time: A case from mixed‐litter decomposition in the Gurbantunggut Desert

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2023
Changes in nitrogen (N) deposition and litter mixtures have been shown to influence ecosystem processes such as litter decomposition. However, the interactive effects of litter mixing and N‐deposition on decomposition process in desert regions remain ...

Influence of drainage status on soil and water chemistry, litter decomposition and soil respiration in central Amazonian forests on sandy soils [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Central Amazonian rainforest landscape supports a mosaic of tall terra firme rainforest and ecotone campinarana, riparian and campina forests, reflecting topography-induced variations in soil, nutrient and drainage conditions.

Learning‐Based Soft Robotic Grasping: Recent Progress and Remaining Challenges

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This review analyzes learning‐based soft robotic grasping from a pipeline‐oriented perspective, encompassing soft gripper design, multimodal sensing, and learning‐based planning and control. It surveys key neural network architectures and benchmark datasets and identifies critical challenges such as sim‐to‐real transfer, generalization, and continual ...

The decomposition of maple (Acer sp.), poplar (Populus sp.), and plane (Platanus sp.) leaf litter as affected in different cropping systems — A preliminary study [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Central European Agriculture
To understand the nutrient cycle in natural systems, it is essential to study the decomposition of terrestrial leaf litter, a key element in these processes.

Interacting Microbe and Litter Quality Controls on Litter Decomposition: A Modeling Analysis

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
The decomposition of plant litter in soil is a dynamic process during which substrate chemistry and microbial controls interact. We more clearly quantify these controls with a revised version of the Guild-based Decomposition Model (GDM) in which we used a reverse Michaelis-Menten approach to simulate short-term (112 days) decomposition of roots from ...

Litter Quality of Populus Species as Affected by Free-Air CO2 Enrichment and N-Fertilization [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The effect of elevated CO2 and nitrogen fertilization on the molecular chemistry of litter of three Populus species and associated soil organic matter (SOM) was investigated by pyrolysis-gas chromatography/mass spectrometry.
