Effects of Different Management Practices on the Increase in Phytolith-Occluded Carbon in Moso Bamboo Forests [PDF]
Phytolith-occluded carbon (PhytOC), a promising long-term biogeochemical carbon sequestration mode, plays a crucial role in the global carbon cycle and the regulation of atmospheric CO2.

Phytoliths are silica biomineralization products within plants and have been considered as a promising material to sequester carbon (C). However, there is considerable uncertainty and controversy regarding the C content in phytoliths due to the lack of detailed information on variation of C under different extraction procedures.

Particulate Backscattering in the Global Ocean: A Comparison of Independent Assessments. [PDF]
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.

Silicon Effects on Biomass Carbon and Phytolith-Occluded Carbon in Grasslands Under High-Salinity Conditions [PDF]
Changes in climate and land use are causing grasslands to suffer increasingly from abiotic stresses, including soil salinization. Silicon (Si) amendment has been frequently proposed to improve plant resistance to multiple biotic and abiotic stresses and ...

Phytolith Radiocarbon Dating: A Review of Previous Studies in China and the Current State of the Debate [PDF]
Phytolith radiocarbon dating can be traced back to the 1960s. However, its reliability has recently been called into question. Piperno summarized recent dating evidence, but most phytolith dating results from China were not included in the review because

Long-term farmland abandonments remarkably increased the phytolith carbon sequestration in soil [PDF]
Background Phytolith-occluded organic carbon (PhytOC) is an important mechanism of long-term stable carbon sinks in terrestrial ecosystems. Farmland abandonment is a widespread land use change in the process of urbanization and industrialization and is ...

Significance of Viral Activity for Regulating Heterotrophic Prokaryote Community Dynamics along a Meridional Gradient of Stratification in the Northeast Atlantic Ocean. [PDF]
How microbial populations interact influences the availability and flux of organic carbon in the ocean. Understanding how these interactions vary over broad spatial scales is therefore a fundamental aim of microbial oceanography.

Production of carbon occluded in phytolith is season-dependent in a bamboo forest in subtropical China. [PDF]
Carbon (C) occluded in phytolith (PhytOC) is a stable form of C; when PhytOC is returned to the soil through litterfall it is stored in the soil which can be an effective way for long-term C sequestration.

Role of phytolith occluded carbon of cereales plants for climate change mitigation [PDF]
Phytolith-occluded carbon (PhytOC) is highly stable, and constitutes an important source of long-term C storage in agrosystems. This stored carbon is resistant to the processes of oxidation of carbon compounds. In our research phytolith content in barley
