2024-05-13The latitudinal patterns and driving factors of plant lignin and microbial necromass accumulation in eastern forests of ChinaPlant - and microbial-derived compounds are the two primary sources of soil organic carbon .The results suggest that the disproportionate impacts of microbial traits ( especially microbial richness : biomass ratios ) on the accumulation of plant lignin and microbial necromass in forest soils of eastern China . These findings have important impli... Plant- and microbial-derived compounds are the two primary sources of soil organic carbon. However, how biotic and abiotic factors regulate the contributions of plant and microbial residue carbon to soil organic carbon at a regional scale remains unclear.Read More

2024-05-10Xiaoliang Station reveals the underlying mechanisms of bioturbation on methane emissions in mangrove soilsBioturbation is one of the most significant environmental characteristics of mangrove ecosystems and plays an important role in the mangrove carbon cycle .This study analyzes methane emissions , soil physicochemical properties , and the composition of methane-cycling microbial communities before and after fiddler crab bioturbation in two distinc... Bioturbation is one of the most significant environmental characteristics of mangrove ecosystems and plays an important role in the mangrove carbon cycle. Macro benthos in the soil act like bioturbators; their presence and activity can significantly impact the microbial-driven carbon cycling processes by altering the physicochemical properties o...Read More
