A comprehensive calibrated phytolith based climatic index from the Himalaya and its application in palaeotemperature reconstruction.

Science of the Total Environment, 2021
Past climate reconstructions from palaeoecological records require an understanding of relationships between modern vegetation and climate. Phytoliths are being used widely to reconstruct variations in C3/C4 grasses in the past vegetation and ...

Sequestration potential of phytolith occluded carbon in China's paddy rice (Oryza sativa L.) systems

, 2021
Phytolith-occluded carbon (PhytOC) is resistant to decomposition and, if crop residue biomass is incorporated into soil, has a significant potential for long-term soil carbon sequestration.

Characteristics of phytolith-occluded organic carbon sequestration in typical plant communities in the Songnen grassland, China

Ecological Engineering: The Journal of Ecotechnology, 2021
Phytolith-occluded organic carbon (PhytOC) sequestration is an important contributor to long-term carbon storage in grassland ecosystems. In this study, 28 typical plant communities of the Songnen grassland in China, consisting of Poaceae, Cyperaceae and

Reconstruction of local-scale plant community characteristics using phytolith: A case study of a forested region in Northeast China

, 2021
Understanding local-scale paleoecological processes and their driving mechanisms is a major challenge in plant community ecology. However, phytolith records have the potential to retrieve localized signals of the evolution and patterns of past ecosystems.

Phytolith content in Vietnamese paddy soils in relation to soil properties

Geoderma, 2019
Understanding of the fate of phytolith in soils is important because of its role as an agronomical nutrient resource and for carbon sequestration. Accumulation of phytolith derived silica occurs in paddy soils when phytolith input, here through straw ...

A review of anatomical and phytolith studies of cystoliths: silica-calcium phytoliths in dicotyledonous angiosperms

Botanical Journal of the Linnean Society, 2023
Abstract Cystoliths are phytoliths of silica and calcium carbonate and are produced in a few groups of dicotyledonous angiosperms. Anatomical and, more recently, phytolith studies have recorded them in different families. In the present review, we analyse and integrate both types of research to compile information about their formation ...

Phytoliths

2006
The study of phytoliths—inorganic silica remnants plants leave behind when they die and decay—has developed dramatically over the last twenty years. New publications have documented a diverse array of phytoliths from many regions around the globe, while new understandings have emerged as to how and why plants produce phytoliths.

Small-scale spatial resolution of the soil phytolith record in a rainforest and a dry forest in Costa Rica: applications to the deep-time fossil phytolith record

, 2020
Phytolith analysis, a well-established tool in archaeology and Quaternary paleoecology, has become a source of data for deep-time paleoecological studies only in the last 15 years.

Storage of soil phytoliths and phytolith-occluded carbon along a precipitation gradient in grasslands of northern China

, 2020
Climatic factors including mean annual precipitation (MAP) significantly influence the carbon (C) cycle in terrestrial ecosystems and Earth overall. Phytolith-occluded carbon (PhytOC) is an important C sequestration mechanism and as such plays a vital ...
