Journal ArticleDOI

Jingfeng Xiao,Ge Sun,Jiquan Chen,Jiquan Chen,Hui Chen,Shiping Chen,Gang Dong,Shenghua Gao,Haiqiang Guo,Jixun Guo,Shijie Han,Tomomichi Kato,Yuelin Li,Guanghui Lin,Weizhi Lu,Mingguo Ma,Steven G. McNulty,Changliang Shao,Xufeng Wang,Xiao Xie,Xudong Zhang,Zhiqiang Zhang,Bin Zhao,Guangsheng Zhou,Jie Zhou +24 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors synthesized flux and micrometeorological observations from 22 eddy covariance flux sites across China, and examined the carbon fluxes, evapotranspiration (ET), and water use efficiency (WUE) of terrestrial ecosystems at the annual scale.
Journal ArticleDOI
Contrasting ecosystem CO2 fluxes of inland and coastal wetlands: a meta-analysis of eddy covariance data.
TL;DR: The contrasting of CO2 fluxes between inland and coastal wetlands globally can improve understanding of the roles of wetlands in the global C cycle, and have implications for informing wetland management and climate change policymaking.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparing carbon sequestration and stand structure of monoculture and mixed mangrove plantations of Sonneratia caseolaris and S apetala in Southern China
TL;DR: In this article, the growth, carbon accumulation in biomass and carbon sequestration in sediments of two fast growing mangrove species of the genus Sonneratia, the native S. caseolaris and non-native S. apetala, were investigated in both mixed and monoculture plantations in Shenzhen Bay, Guangdong Province, China.
Journal ArticleDOI
Stronger ecosystem carbon sequestration potential of mangrove wetlands with respect to terrestrial forests in subtropical China
Xiaowei Cui,Xiaowei Cui,Jie Liang,Weizhi Lu,Weizhi Lu,Hui Chen,Hui Chen,Fang Liu,Guangxuan Lin,Fanghong Xu,Yiqi Luo,Guanghui Lin,Guanghui Lin +12 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors compared the different mechanisms of carbon sequestration in mangrove and terrestrial forest ecosystems, and found that the terrestrial forests had lower light compensation point but higher maximum photosynthesis rates than the mangroves.
Journal ArticleDOI
Changes in Carbon Pool and Stand Structure of a Native Subtropical Mangrove Forest after Inter-Planting with Exotic Species Sonneratia apetala
Weizhi Lu,S. Y. Yang,Luzhen Chen,Wenqing Wang,Xiaona Du,Canmou Wang,Yan Ma,Guangxuan Lin,Guanghui Lin +8 more
TL;DR: This study compared stand structure, biomass and soil carbon pools, and litterfall production between a mixed mangrove forest inter-planted with the exotic Sonneratia apetala and a native monospecific forest dominated by A. corniculatum to test the hypothesis that inter-planting fast growing exoticMangrove S.apetala into subtropical native mangroves will significantly increase C sequestration.
