Production of Phytolith and PhytOC and Distribution of Extractable Si Pools in Aerobic Rice as Influenced by Different Si Sources

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2023
Phytoliths are composed of 66 to 91% SiO2 and 1 to 6% organic carbon (C) known as phytolith occluded carbon (PhytOC). PhytOC is critical for long-term C storage in the agroecosystem.

Phytolith‐occluded carbon sequestration potential in three major steppe types along a precipitation gradient in Northern China

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2021
Phytolith‐occluded carbon (PhytOC) is an important long‐term stable carbon fraction in grassland ecosystems and plays a promising role in global carbon sequestration.

Comment on "Possible source of ancient carbon in phytolith concentrates from harvested grasses" by G. M. Santos et al. (2012) [PDF]

open access: yesBiogeosciences, 2013
Santos et al. (2012) address the important issue that <SUP>14</SUP>C dating of the carbon occluded in silica phytoliths (PhytOC) isolated from contemporary plant materials can produce ages that are incompatible, being often several kyr older,

Assessing production of phytolith and phytolith occluded carbon in above-ground biomass of intensively cultivated rice ecosystems in India

open access: yesCarbon Management, 2021
Carbon (C) occluded in phytoliths is stable and an important source of long-term C storage into the agroecosystems. As a silicon (Si) accumulator crop, rice produces a large amount of phytolith occluded carbon (PhytOC) and which plays a crucial role in ...

The phytolith carbon sequestration in terrestrial ecosystems: the underestimated potential of bamboo forest

open access: yesEcological Processes, 2023
Background Terrestrial ecosystems contain significant carbon storage, vital to the global carbon cycle and climate change. Alterations in human production activities and environmental factors affect the stability of carbon storage in soil.

Changes in land use are associated with the accumulation of soil phytolith-occluded organic carbon

open access: yesEcological Indicators, 2023
Organic carbon occluded in phytoliths is extremely stable and plays important roles in long-term preservation of soil and stable carbon sequestration in terrestrial ecosystems.

Enhancement of phytolith-occluded carbon accumulation of Moso bamboo response to temperatures elevation and different fertilization

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2023
The accumulation of phytolith-occluded carbon (PhytOC) in Moso bamboo could be a novel long-term carbon sequestration strategy. The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of temperature change and different fertilization on PhytOC ...

Epidemiological observations on pastern dermatitis in young horses and evaluation of essential fatty acid spot‐on applications with or without phytosphingosine as prophylactic treatment

open access: yesVeterinary Dermatology, Volume 33, Issue 3, Page 221-e62, June 2022., 2022
Background Equine pastern dermatitis (EPD) is a common multifactorial clinical syndrome in horses. Treatment can be difficult; pathogenesis and triggering factors cannot always be determined. Objectives To assess risk factors for developing EPD in a large group of horses kept under the same conditions and to analyse whether or not a spot‐on containing ...

Constraining growth rates and the ratio of living to nonliving particulate carbon using beam attenuation and adenosine‐5′‐triphosphate at Station ALOHA

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography Letters, Volume 6, Issue 5, Page 243-252, October 2021., 2021
Abstract Carbon is not only the foundation of all life on our planet, but also an element that persists in detrital material long after living organisms die. Quantifying the relative amount of living and nonliving carbon in suspended particles in the ocean is challenging and rarely done; yet it is key to understanding the fate of organic matter and ...

Particulate Backscattering in the Global Ocean: A Comparison of Independent Assessments

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 48, Issue 2, 28 January 2021., 2021
Abstract How well do we know the particulate backscattering coefficient (bbp) in the global ocean? Satellite lidar bbp has never been validated globally and few studies have compared lidar bbp to bbp derived from reflectances (via ocean color) or in situ observations.
