Historical climate controls soil respiration responses to current soil moisture [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2017
Significance Ecosystems’ feedback to climate change remains a source of uncertainty in global models that project future climate conditions. That uncertainty rests largely on how much soil carbon will be lost as microbial respiration and how that loss varies across ecosystems.

Long‐Term Elevated CO2 Improves Soil Health and Rice Yields in Paddy Fields

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Combining the two longest‐running rice free‐air CO2 enrichment experiments with a global data synthesis, this study demonstrates that long‐term elevated CO2 consistently enhances soil health. In rice paddies, this improvement sustains the CO2 fertilization effect over decades.

Edible and Recyclable Gelatin‐Based Electronics for High‐Precision Health and Environmental Monitoring

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
An edible and recyclable composite film composed of gelatin and activated charcoal is presented for multifunctional health and environmental monitoring. The edible films exhibit tuneable mechanical and electrical properties, along with multimodal sensing capabilities for strain, humidity, and temperature. The composite film is degradable and recyclable,

Variation in Soil Carbon Dioxide Efflux at Two Spatial Scales in a Topographically Complex Boreal Forest [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Carbon dynamics of high latitude regions are an important and highly uncertain component of global carbon budgets, and efforts to constrain estimates of soil-atmosphere carbon exchange in these regions are contingent on accurate representations of ...

A Comparison of Urban Soil to Rural Soils [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Previous studies have shown significantly more seedlings and saplings at control sites above Estacada, Oregon than in Forest Park. In an attempt to determine possible reasons for the lack of young trees in the urban forest, we measured the depth of the O

Significance of temperature and soil water content on soil respiration in three desert ecosystems in Northwest China [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
It is crucial to understand how abiotic factors influence soil respiration and to determine, in a quantitative manner, the site variation of abiotic regulators in desert ecosystems.

Respiration of aged soil carbon during fall in permafrost peatlands enhanced by active layer deepening following wildfire but limited following thermokarst [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Permafrost peatlands store globally significant amounts of soil organic carbon (SOC) that may be vulnerable to climate change. Permafrost thaw exposes deeper, older SOC to microbial activity, but SOC vulnerability to mineralization and release as carbon ...

The influence of soil communities on the temperature sensitivity of soil respiration [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Soil respiration represents a major carbon flux between terrestrial ecosystems and the atmosphere, and is expected to accelerate under climate warming.
