Asynchronous responses of microbial CAZymes genes and the net CO2 exchange in alpine peatland following 5 years of continuous extreme drought events

open access: yesISME Communications, 2022
Peatlands act as an important sink of carbon dioxide (CO2). Yet, they are highly sensitive to climate change, especially to extreme drought. The changes in the net ecosystem CO2 exchange (NEE) under extreme drought events, and the driving function of ...

Profile-wide desalinization is associated with increased deep-soil microbial biomass and reduced iron-bound carbon in coastal wetland restoration [PDF]

open access: yesBiogeosciences
Tillage- and mulching-based interventions are increasingly used to control invasive plants and modify soil hydro-salinity, but their effects on subsoil carbon (C) stabilization are poorly quantified.
