Post‐Fire Soil Organic Carbon Dynamics: Decline and Recovery Over Two Decades

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Wildfire can significantly alter soil organic carbon (SOC) dynamics in forest ecosystems, with complex temporal patterns following fire events. However, research on post‐fire SOC recovery remains limited, particularly in dry‐warm valley regions that are prone to frequent forest fires.

Bio‐Derived Carbon Nanoparticles: A Green Amendment for Alleviating Heavy Metals in Soil–Plant Systems

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Heavy metal (HM) contamination of soil–plant systems poses persistent ecological and health risks, driving interest in nanoparticle‐based remediation. Although conventional chemically synthesized nanoparticles (CSNPs) are effective, their energy‐intensive production and residual toxicity limit sustainable deployment.

Forest Vapor Pressure Deficit Sensitivity: A Potential Indicator of Soil Carbon Stability Under Atmospheric Drying

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This Short Report examines an underexplored link between atmospheric drying and soil organic carbon (SOC) stability. Rising atmospheric vapor pressure deficit (VPD) is becoming an increasingly important hydroclimatic stressor for terrestrial ecosystems.

Manure Composting as a Strategy to Mitigate Antibiotic Resistance Dissemination in Agricultural Systems

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Livestock manure is a valuable agricultural resource but may introduce antibiotic residues and antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) into the environment. This review critically evaluates the fate of antibiotics and ARGs during manure composting and identifies the principal factors controlling their attenuation.

Evaluation of methods for the analysis of oxygen and carbon dioxide in water, sediment, litter, and soil

Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Choosing an appropriate analyzer to measure concentrations of oxygen (O2) and carbon dioxide (CO2) during biogeochemical cycling studies can be difficult, considering the range of options available. While several studies examine the abilities of specific analyzers, comparison of multiple analyzers and environmental sample types is lacking.

Cotton strips as a model substrate for analysis of leaf‐litter‐colonizing microbial assemblages in streams

Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Leaf‐litter decomposition is a key indicator of the functional integrity of stream ecosystems and cotton strips have been employed as a standard substrate for quantification of litter‐decomposition rates in streams across the globe. Cotton strips also offer a standardized method for assessing structural integrity of stream microbial ...
