Impacts of monoculture cropland to alley cropping agroforestry conversion on soil N2O emissions

GCB Bioenergy, 2023
Monoculture croplands are a major source of global anthropogenic emissions of nitrous oxide (N2O), a potent greenhouse gas that contributes to ozone depletion. Agroforestry has the potential to reduce N2O emissions.

Diversity and metabolic potentials of microbial communities associated with pollinator and cheater fig wasps in fig-fig wasp mutualism system

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022
Microbial symbionts can influence a myriad of insect behavioral and physiological traits. However, how microbial communities may shape or be shaped by insect interactions with plants and neighboring species remains underexplored.

Estimating tropical forest biomass with a combination of SAR image texture and Landsat TM data:an assessment of predictions between regions [PDF]

, 2012
Quantifying the above ground biomass of tropical forests is critical for understanding the dynamics of carbon fluxes between terrestrial ecosystems and the atmosphere, as well as monitoring ecosystem responses to environmental change.

Ecological stoichiometry of the epiphyte community in a subtropical forest canopy

Ecology and Evolution, 2019
Epiphytes in tree canopies make a considerable contribution to the species diversity, aboveground biomass, and nutrient pools in forest ecosystems. However, the nutrient status of epiphytes and their possible adaptations to nutrient deficiencies in the ...

Diversity did not influence soil water use of tree clusters in a temperate mixed forest [PDF]

Web Ecology, 2013
Compared to monocultures, diverse ecosystems are often expected to show more comprehensive resource use. However, with respect to diversity–soil-water-use relationships in forests, very little information is available. We analysed soil water uptake

Tropical Dry Forest Resilience to Fire Depends on Fire Frequency and Climate

, 2021
Wildfires are becoming increasingly frequent and devastating in many tropical forests. Although seasonally dry tropical forests (SDTF) are among the most fire-threatened ecosystems, their long-term response to frequent wildfires remains largely unknown.
