Impact of tropical rainforest transformation in Indonesia on soil carbon sources, turnover and losses
(2022-01-13)Agricultural expansion is one of the most dominant drivers of deforestation word wide. The globally rising demand for cash crops such as oil palm and rubber, caused rapid agricultural expansion during the last decades, ... -
Plant nutrient mobilization and acquisition strategies: adaptation to water and nutrient availability
(2021-03-18)Distribution and variability of precipitation are predicted to shift in Chile and are expected to lead to increases in frequency and duration of droughts. These developments can lead to a cascade of environmental changes ... -
Composition, degradation and stabilization of soil organic matter along an elevation gradient of Mount Kilimanjaro
(2020-12-21)Understanding the complex biotic and abiotic drivers of carbon (C) and nutrient cycles, especially in the soils of tropical mountainous ecosystems, is essential to the management of ecosystem services provided by them. Mt. ... -
Anaerobic oxidation of methane in paddy soil
(2020-11-18)The anaerobic oxidation of methane (AOM) is a globally important CH4 sink that offsets potential CH4 emission into the atmosphere. AOM is estimated to consume up to 90% of CH4 produced in marine sediments before it reaches ... -
Effects of insect mass outbreaks on the C and N balance in forest ecosystems
(2019-06-27)Intensive defoliation by phytophagous insects in forests is accompanied by high amounts of organic litter deposition which affects biogeochemical processes in soil, thereby changing nutrient recycling and release as well ... -
Effects of biotic and abiotic factors on the spatial distribution of enzyme activities in the soil
(2018-11-27)Enzymes produced by plant and microorganisms are crucial to soil functions as they decompose insoluble macromolecules organic compound to smaller, soluble molecules which can be assimilated by cells. The enzymes are spatial ... -
Effect of land use on soil fertility and carbon sequestration
(2018-03-26)Land-use change, particularly the conversion of natural forest to agriculture to sustain the growing global population, has severe environmental impacts, including emission of greenhouse gases, diminished biodiversity, and ...
