Journal ArticleDOI

Mineral control of soil organic carbon storage and turnover

TL;DR: In this article, the authors explore the relationship between soil mineralogy and organic carbon along two natural gradients (i.e., soil-age and climate) in volcanic soil environments.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Technology Path to Deep Greenhouse Gas Emissions Cuts by 2050: The Pivotal Role of Electricity

TL;DR: It is found that technically feasible levels of energy efficiency and decarbonized energy supply alone are not sufficient; widespread electrification of transportation and other sectors is required.
Journal ArticleDOI

Stabilization of Soil Organic Matter: Association with Minerals or Chemical Recalcitrance?

TL;DR: In this article, the authors analyzed pool size and isotopic composition (14C, 13C) of mineral-protected and recalcitrant organic carbon (OC) in 12 subsurface horizons from 10 acidic forest soils, showing that stabilization of OM by interaction with poorly crystalline minerals and polymeric metal species is the most important mechanism for preservation of OM in these acid subsoil horizons.
Journal ArticleDOI

The FLUXNET2015 dataset and the ONEFlux processing pipeline for eddy covariance data

Gilberto Pastorello, +303 more
- 09 Jul 2020 - 
TL;DR: The FLUXNET2015 dataset provides ecosystem-scale data on CO 2 , water, and energy exchange between the biosphere and the atmosphere, and other meteorological and biological measurements, from 212 sites around the globe, and is detailed in this paper.
