Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of moso bamboo encroachment into native, broad-leaved forests on soil carbon and nitrogen pools.
Shangbin Bai,Richard T. Conant,Guomo Zhou,Yixiang Wang,Yixiang Wang,Nan Wang,Yanhua Li,Kaiqiang Zhang +7 more
TL;DR: Bamboo encroachment into evergreen broadleaved forests seems likely to lead to net CO2 emissions to the atmosphere as ecosystem C stocks decline, and changes in soil C and N occurred mainly in the topsoil.
Journal ArticleDOI
Molecular composition of soil organic matter with land-use change along a bi-continental mean annual temperature gradient
TL;DR: Overall, this study highlights that the implementation of different agricultural management practices enhances the degradation of recalcitrant SOM compounds that may become a source of atmospheric CO2 with increasing land-use and climate change.
Journal ArticleDOI
Differential responses of soil organic carbon fractions to warming: Results from an analysis with data assimilation

TL;DR: In this article, a three-pool C-cycling model was optimally fitted with previously-published data from a 588-day long soil incubation experiment conducted at two temperatures (25 and 35°C) for 12 soils collected from six sites arrayed across a mean annual temperature gradient from 2.0 to 25.6°C.

Journal ArticleDOI
Regionally differentiated estimates of cropland N2O emissions reduce uncertainty in global calculations
TL;DR: In this article, the authors use Bayesian inversion to leverage information from recent national-level N2O emission inventories and reduce uncertainty by up to 65% for estimates of regional and global direct cropland emissions.
