Soil organic carbon (SOC) is an important pool in the global carbon cycle, playing a vital role
in moderating atmospheric CO 2 concentrations. Soil is the largest carbon pool in terrestrial …

Abstract Knowledge of nutrient traits, especially carbon (C), nitrogen (N), and phosphorus
(P), is essential for understanding the biogeochemical cycle and ecosystem functioning …

The conversion of natural forests to plantations can lead to a substantial loss of soil organic
carbon (SOC) and threaten the function of soil microbial communities. However, the effect of …

The effects of rangeland management on biogeochemical processes that control the
exchange of C and nutrients between the soil and plant are not well understood. For this …

Key message Different tree species have dissimilar capacities to sequester soil organic
carbon (SOC). Deciduous broadleaved trees show the most stable increase in SOC stock …

Tannins play vital roles in regulating ecological processes in mangrove forests. However,
how tannins affect nitrogen (N) cycling and microbial metabolism in mangrove ecosystems …

In this paper, we analyze the macrofungi communities of five forest types in Wunvfeng
National Forest Park (Jilin, China) by collecting fruiting bodies from 2019–2021. Each forest …

Afforestation of cropland is recommended as an effective approach to enhance soil organic
carbon (SOC) sequestration and labile organic C fractions. However, the stabilization of …

Sustainable management practices can enhance the capacity and potential for soil carbon
(C) sequestration, significantly contributing towards mitigating regional climate change …

Soil quality indices (SQI) used for assessing soil degradation are often developed using
additive scoring functions. However, these SQI may lack reference values for interpreting …
