This review summarizes the microbial mechanisms responsible for removal of carbon,
nitrogen, and sulfur compounds in treatment wetlands (TWs) and identifies, categorizes and …

Soil microorganisms mediate many processes such as nitrification, denitrification, and
methanogenesis that regulate ecosystem functioning and also feed back to influence …

Background Biochar amendments have been widely proposed as a conventional and
efficient strategy to promote soil organic carbon (SOC) sequestration via negative priming …

Flooding affects both above-and below-ground ecosystem processes. While the below-
ground changes may be less obvious, they are as important as the above-ground changes …

Soil aggregates provide microhabitats for nematodes and microorganisms, but how
nematodes and microbial community interactively drive the dynamics of soil organic carbon …

Soil microorganisms regulate fundamental biochemical processes in plant litter
decomposition and soil organic matter (SOM) transformations. Understanding how microbial …

We used multi-tag pyrosequencing of 16S ribosomal DNA to characterize bacterial
communities of wetland soils collected from created and natural wetlands located in the …

Shifts in microbial community function and structure can be indicators of environmental
stress and ecosystem change in wetland soils. This study evaluated the effects of increased …

The addition of fresh organic matter is known to modify both soil aggregation and soil biotic
community composition. We hypothesized that fertilization alters the composition of soil …

Soil labile organic carbon (LOC) fractions can response rapidly to environmental change
and are essential to soil C cycling. There has been very little evaluation about the …
