Carbon‐Fixing Bacterial Network Complexity Mediates Soil Multifunctionality in a Panax notoginseng‐Pinus armandii Agroforestry System

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Autotrophic carbon‐fixing bacteria (CFB) are central contributors to soil carbon sequestration and biogeochemical carbon cycling in agroforestry ecosystems and can act as reliable biological indicators for evaluating agroforestry ecosystem sustainability.

Bryophyte richness of soil islands on rocky outcrops is not driven by island size or habitat heterogeneity

Acta Botânica Brasílica, 2018
The species-area relationship (SAR) is one of the oldest and most studied ecological models, having even served as the foundation of the Theory of Island Biogeography.

Niche Based or Neutral Processes? Bacterial Community Assembly in Soil Aggregates During Primary and Secondary Succession

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Abiotic and biotic filters shape microbial phylogenetic diversity. Here, we evaluated bacterial phylogenetic diversity in micro‐ and macro‐aggregates across primary and secondary soil successions to assess the relative influence of niche‐based and neutral processes.

Unraveling algae and cyanobacteria biodiversity in bromeliad phytotelmata in different vegetation formations in Bahia State, Northeastern Brazil

Acta Botânica Brasílica, 2018
Knowledge of algal and cyanobacterial diversity of phytotelmata remains poorly-known, especially for bromeliads from different vegetation formations. We investigated the microalgae communities of four species of tank bromeliads from different vegetation ...

Microhabitat selection in two species of heteromyid rodents

Oecologia, 1978
An experiment was conducted to determine the microhabitat preferences of two heteromyid rodents, Dipodomys ordi and Perognathus flavus. This experiment used marked seeds and the atomic absorption spectrophotometer in order to study the environment as a mosiac of microhabitats.

Long‐Term Combined Application of Biochar and Chemical Fertilizers Enhances Potassium Supply Capacity in Continuous Cropping Soils

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sustaining soil potassium (K) supply in intensive continuous cropping systems is increasingly challenging because long‐term crop removal often exceeds the natural replenishment capacity of soil K‐bearing minerals, leading to progressive depletion of plant‐available K pools.

Stand Age, Standard Retention Density and Site Conditions as Drivers of Shoot Biomass Accumulation in Mediterranean Oak Coppices

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Mediterranean oak coppices represent an important fuelwood resource in Central Italy, but management decisions are often constrained by limited quantitative evidence on the relative importance of stand development, standard retention, site conditions, and climate in driving shoot biomass accumulation.

Coupling of Physical Protection and Molecular Composition Drives Carbon Sequestration Divergence in Soils Planted With Different Tea Varieties

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Tea plantations represent significant carbon (C) sinks in agricultural landscapes, yet how variety‐specific organic inputs are associated with the molecular composition and stability of soil organic carbon (SOC) within aggregate hierarchies remains unclear.
