Development of an NDIR CO2 Sensor-Based System for Assessing Soil Toxicity Using Substrate-Induced Respiration [PDF]
Sensors, 2015 The eco-toxicological indicators used to evaluate soil quality complement the physico-chemical criteria employed in contaminated site remediation, but their cost, time, sophisticated analytical methods and in-situ inapplicability pose a major challenge ...

Representation of dormant and active microbial dynamics for ecosystem modeling. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Dormancy is an essential strategy for microorganisms to cope with environmental stress. However, global ecosystem models typically ignore microbial dormancy, resulting in notable model uncertainties.

Risk Assessment of Psychotropic Drugs on Mitochondrial Function Using In Vitro Assays
Biomedicines, 2023 Mitochondria are potential targets responsible for some drug- and xenobiotic-induced organ toxicities. However, molecular mechanisms of drug-induced mitochondrial toxicities are mostly unknown.

Decreased carbon limitation of litter respiration in a mortality-affected piñon–juniper woodland [PDF]
Biogeosciences, 2013 Microbial respiration depends on microclimatic variables and carbon (C) substrate availability, all of which are altered when ecosystems experience major disturbance. Widespread tree mortality, currently affecting piñon–juniper ecosystems in southwestern

Effects of Soil Temperature and Moisture on Soil Respiration on the Tibetan Plateau. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 Understanding of effects of soil temperature and soil moisture on soil respiration (Rs) under future warming is critical to reduce uncertainty in predictions of feedbacks to atmospheric CO2 concentrations from grassland soil carbon.

Comparison of Soil Biological Activity in Forest with Coniferous and Broadleaf Trees in Biston Region of Kermanshah [PDF]
مجله آب و خاک, 2022 IntroductionThe maintenance of planted forests in arid and semi-arid lands is important. Soil formation in forest ecosystems is different with different tree species. Tree species have a direct and indirect effect on soil organisms.
