Carbon fluxes in a mature deciduous forest under elevated CO₂ [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
This PhD thesis addressed several major aspects of the carbon (C) cycle in a c. 100-year-old, mixed deciduous forest under elevated CO₂ with an emphasis on below-ground processes.

Effects of simulated acid rain on soil respiration and its component in a mixed coniferous-broadleaved forest of the three gorges reservoir area in Southwest China

open access: yesForest Ecosystems, 2019
Background Soil respiration in forest ecosystems is an important part of the forest carbon (C) cycle. Studying the variation patterns of soil respiration under acid rain conditions is critically important for understanding forest C balance and performing

Comparison of boreal ecosystem model sensitivity to variability in climate and forest site parameters [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Ecosystem models are useful tools for evaluating environmental controls on carbon and water cycles under past or future conditions. In this paper we compare annual carbon and water fluxes from nine boreal spruce forest ecosystem models in a series of ...

Microplastics from Wearable Bioelectronic Devices: Sources, Risks, and Sustainable Solutions

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Bioelectronic devices (e.g., e‐skins) heavily rely on polymers that at the end of their life cycle will generate microplastics. For research, a holistic approach to viewing the full impact of such devices cannot be overlooked. The potential for devices as sources for microplastics is raised, with mitigation strategies surrounding polysaccharide and ...

Winter soil CO2 flux from different mid-latitude sites from Middle Taihang Mountain in north China. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Winter soil respiration is a very important component of the annual soil carbon flux in some ecosystems. We hypothesized that, with all other factors being equal, shorter winter SR result in reduced contribution to annual soil C flux.

Forest soil respiration response to increasing nitrogen deposition along an urban–rural gradient

open access: yesGlobal Ecology and Conservation, 2021
Forest soil respiration is an important part of the terrestrial ecosystem carbon (C) cycle and controlled by multiple factors, especially atmospheric nitrogen (N) deposition and environmental change.

Metal–Organic Frameworks for Gaseous Pollutant Management: From Capture to Neutralization and Reutilization

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This review maps how MOFs can manage hazardous gases by combining adsorption, neutralization, and reutilization, enabling sustainable air‐pollution control. Covering chemical warfare agent simulants, SO2, NOx, NH3, H2S, and volatile organic compounds, it highlights structure‐guided strategies that boost selectivity, water tolerance, and cycling ...

Effect of moisture on leaf litter decomposition and its contribution to soil respiration in a temperate forest [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The degree to which increased soil respiration rates following wetting is caused by plant (autotrophic) versus microbial (heterotrophic) processes, is still largely uninvestigated. Incubation studies suggest microbial processes play a role but it remains

Highly Sensitive Oxidation‐Resistant Degradable Janus Piezoresistive Electronic Skin for Sustainable Wearable Electronics

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This study presents a highly sensitive, oxidation‐resistant, biocompatible, and degradable Janus piezoresistive electronic skin for sustainable wearable electronics. The electronic skin exhibits sensitive and stable response across a broad pressure range, exceptional oxidation resistance, and Janus wettability.

Direct soil moisture controls of future global soil carbon changes: An important source of uncertainty [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The nature of the climate–carbon cycle feedback depends critically on the response of soil carbon to climate, including changes in moisture. However, soil moisture–carbon feedback responses have not been investigated thoroughly.
