ABSTRACT Water potential gradients govern water fluxes, and plants respond with species‐specific hydraulic traits that influence ecosystem function. While understanding these traits is key to predicting vegetation responses to climate change, traditional methods like the pressure chamber limit temporal resolution and continuity.

Carbon and nutrient inputs by litterfall into three chestnut high forest stands in Northern Portugal [PDF]
Litter fall in three high forest chestnut stands, located in different soil types, in Bornes, Marão and Padrela, northern Portugal, with 45, 63 and 65 years old, respectively, was collected during two years in December by a 0.5x0.5 m square method.

Quantifying rainfall–runoff relationships on the Dera Calcic Fluvic Regosol ecotope in Ethiopia
Abstract Droughts, resulting in low crop yields, are common in the semi-arid areas of Ethiopia and adversely influence the well-being of many people. The objective of this study was to assess the benefit that in-field rainwater harvesting (IRWH) would have, compared to conventional tillage, on maize yields on a semi-arid ecotope at Dera situated on ...

Abstract The temperature sensitivity of soil organic carbon decomposition (Q10) governs the fate of soil carbon under global warming. Although erosion redistributes soil carbon at scales comparable to the terrestrial carbon sink, how erosion reshapes Q10 across large regional scales remains elusive.

Trait-mediated diversification in nematode predator–prey systems [PDF]
Nematodes are presumably the most numerous Metazoans in terrestrial habitats. They are represented at all trophic levels and are known to respond to nutrient limitation, prey availability, and microbial resources.

Recurrent hot droughts cause persistent legacy effects in a temperate Scots Pine forest
A series of hot drought events caused persistent legacy effects in a Scots Pine forest, with severe negative impacts on ecosystem carbon fluxes. Abstract Recent hot‐dry events have caused significant impacts and legacy effects in temperate ecosystems. Here, we investigate legacy effects of the 2018 hot drought on a Pinus sylvestris L.

Non-legume plant species effects on soil nematodes abundance in a Regosol
The effects of a non-legume cover crop on total soil nematode abundance and soil groups of nematodes were investigated in a long-term field study. We compared total abundance of soil nematode and the abundance of both free-living soil nematode and root-feeding soil nematode under three different treatments (Pennisetum glaucum (L.) R.
