Positive relationship between substrate-induced respiration rate and translationally active bacterial counts in soil [PDF]

mSystems
Soil microorganisms perform biogeochemical processes fundamental to soil functions. Bulk respiration, or microbial metabolic emission of CO2, is the classic indicator of soil biological activity.

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 ...

Impact of Olive Saplings and Organic Amendments on Soil Microbial Communities and Effects of Mineral Fertilization

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021
Plant communities and fertilization may have an impact on soil microbiome. Most commercial olive trees are minerally fertilized, while this practice is being replaced by the use of organic amendments.

Application of Degradable Carbon and Nitrogen Moderates Carbon Sequestration Potential of Biochar in Arable Soils

Ekológia (Bratislava), 2021
Biochar can affect CO2 emission and C sequestration from soils, but little is known about the effects of its re-application and interaction with easily accessible substrates.

Comparison of the Responses of Soil Enzymes, Microbial Respiration and Plant Growth Characteristics under the Application of Agricultural and Food Waste-Derived Biochars

Agronomy, 2022
The conversion of bio-wastes to useful products such as biochar provide a suitable option not only to minimize the mass of wastes, but also to use the biochar as soil amendment.

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
