TL;DR: A consistent positive concave-down effect of biodiversity on forest productivity across the world is revealed, showing that a continued biodiversity loss would result in an accelerating decline in forest productivity worldwide.
Journal ArticleDOI
Microbial mineralization of biochar and wheat straw mixture in soil: A short-term study
Costanza Zavalloni,Giorgio Alberti,Stefano Biasiol,Gemini Delle Vedove,Flavio Fornasier,Jie Liu,Alessandro Peressotti +6 more
TL;DR: A short-term incubation study was carried out to investigate the effect of biochar addition to soil on CO 2 emissions, microbial biomass, soil soluble carbon (C) nitrogen (N) and nitrate-nitrogen (NO 3 -N) as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Precipitation pulses enhance respiration of Mediterranean ecosystems: the balance between organic and inorganic components of increased soil CO2 efflux
I. Inglima,Giorgio Alberti,T. Bertolini,Francesco Primo Vaccari,Beniamino Gioli,Franco Miglietta,M. F. Cotrufo,Alessandro Peressotti +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the mechanisms of this observed enhanced respiration fluxes and partition of the soil CO 2 sources and found that the enhancement of heterotrophic respiration is likely due to the degradation of easily decomposable substrates, accumulated in soils during the dry period.
Journal ArticleDOI
Carbon dynamics of a ponderosa pine plantation following a thinning treatment in the northern Sierra Nevada
TL;DR: The authors investigated the impacts of a thinning prescription commonly used to reduce fuel loads in mature ponderosa pine forests of the northern Sierra Nevada Mountains on the distribution of carbon among functionally distinct pools, and on the component fluxes of net ecosystem production (NEP).
Journal ArticleDOI
C mineralization and microbial activity in four biochar field experiments several years after incorporation
Nele Ameloot,Steven Sleutel,Sean D.C. Case,Giorgio Alberti,Niall P. McNamara,Costanza Zavalloni,Bram Vervisch,Gemini Delle Vedove,Stefaan De Neve +8 more
TL;DR: In this article, soil was sampled from biochar-amended and control plots of four biochar field trials at Lincoln (UK), Rivignano, Rocca Bernarda and Beano in Italy.
