Effects of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi and soil nutrient addition on the growth of Phragmites australis under different drying-rewetting cycles. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
The frequency of soil drying-rewetting cycles is predicted to increase under future global climate change, and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) are symbiotic with most plants.

Regeneration potential of a degraded alpine mountain bog: complex regeneration patterns after grazing cessation and partial rewetting [PDF]

open access: yesMires and Peat, 2022
A typical degraded mountain bog in the Swiss Alps was restored by cessation of grazing and partial rewetting. We observed the development of the vegetation over 15 years, starting immediately after the grazing cessation (4 years before rewetting ...

Back to the Future: Restoring Northern Drained Forested Peatlands for Climate Change Mitigation

open access: yesFrontiers in Environmental Science, 2022
Draining peatlands for forestry in the northern hemisphere turns their soils from carbon sinks to substantial sources of greenhouse gases (GHGs). To reverse this trend, rewetting has been proposed as a climate change mitigation strategy.

Towards more sustainable hydrological management and land use of drained coastal peatlands - A biogeochemical balancing act [PDF]

open access: yesMires and Peat, 2020
Worldwide, drainage-based water management is applied to facilitate agricultural use of coastal peatland areas, leading to large-scale peat oxidation and land subsidence.

Analysis of Rewetting Characteristics and Process Parameters in Tobacco Strip Redrying Stage

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2022
To study the rewetting characteristics of tobacco strips during the redrying stage, a conjugate heat and mass transfer model of tobacco strips was established based on their physical properties.

Asynchronous pulse responses of soil carbon and nitrogen mineralization to rewetting events at a short-term: Regulation by microbes

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
Rewetting after precipitation events plays an important role in regulating soil carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) turnover processes in arid and semiarid ecosystems.

Absence of oxygen effect on microbial structure and methane production during drying and rewetting events

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Natural environments with frequent drainage experience drying and rewetting events that impose fluctuations in water availability and oxygen exposure. These relatively dramatic cycles profoundly impact microbial activity in the environment and subsequent

Sediment drying-rewetting cycles enhance greenhouse gas emissions, nutrient and trace element release, and promote water cytogenotoxicity.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2020
Increased periods of prolonged droughts followed by severe precipitation events are expected throughout South America due to climate change. Freshwater sediments are especially sensitive to these changing climate conditions.

Estimating taxon‐specific population dynamics in diverse microbial communities

open access: yesEcosphere, 2018
Understanding how population‐level dynamics contribute to ecosystem‐level processes is a primary focus of ecological research and has led to important breakthroughs in the ecology of macroscopic organisms.

Impact of drying, freezing and re-wetting events soil leachate in acidic versus calcareous soils [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the Serbian Chemical Society
This study investigates the impact of drying-rewetting and freezing-rewetting events on soil leachate ion composition across two contrasting geochemical settings through a series of controlled laboratory experiments.
