TL;DR: The Community Atmosphere-Biosphere Land Exchange model (CABLE) is a land surface model that can be applied stand-alone and provides the Australian Community Climate and Earth System Simulator (ACCESS).
Abstract: . The Community Atmosphere–Biosphere Land Exchange model (CABLE) is a land
surface model (LSM) that can be applied stand-alone and provides the
land surface–atmosphere exchange within the Australian Community Climate
and Earth System Simulator (ACCESS). We describe new developments that extend
the applicability of CABLE for regional and global carbon–climate
simulations, accounting for vegetation responses to biophysical and
anthropogenic forcings. A land use and land cover change module driven by
gross land use transitions and wood harvest area was implemented, tailored to
the needs of the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project 6 (CMIP6). Novel
aspects include the treatment of secondary woody vegetation, which benefits
from a tight coupling between the land use module and the Population Orders
Physiology (POP) module for woody demography and disturbance-mediated
landscape heterogeneity. Land use transitions and harvest associated with
secondary forest tiles modify the annually resolved patch age distribution
within secondary vegetated tiles, in turn affecting biomass accumulation and
turnover rates and hence the magnitude of the secondary forest sink.
Additionally, we implemented a novel approach to constrain modelled GPP
consistent with the coordination hypothesis and predicted by evolutionary
theory, which suggests that electron-transport- and Rubisco-limited rates
adjust seasonally and across biomes to be co-limiting. We show that the
default prior assumption – common to CABLE and other LSMs – of a fixed
ratio of electron transport to carboxylation capacity at standard temperature
( Jmax, 0∕Vcmax, 0 ) is at odds with this hypothesis; we implement
an alternative algorithm for dynamic optimisation of this ratio such that
coordination is achieved as an outcome of fitness maximisation. The results have
significant implications for the magnitude of the simulated CO2
fertilisation effect on photosynthesis in comparison to alternative estimates
and observational proxies. These new developments enhance CABLE's capability for use within an Earth
system model and in stand-alone applications to attribute trends and
variability in the terrestrial carbon cycle to regions, processes and
drivers. Model evaluation shows that the new model version satisfies several
key observational constraints: (i) trend and interannual
variations in the global land carbon sink, including sensitivities of
interannual variations to global precipitation and temperature anomalies;
(ii) centennial trends in global GPP; (iii) coordination of Rubisco-limited
and electron-transport-limited photosynthesis; (iv) spatial distributions of
global ET, GPP, biomass and soil carbon; and (v) age-dependent rates of
biomass accumulation in boreal, temperate and tropical secondary forests. CABLE simulations agree with recent independent assessments of the global
land–atmosphere flux partition that use a combination of atmospheric
inversions and bottom-up constraints. In particular, there is agreement that
the strong CO2 -driven sink in the tropics is largely cancelled by net
deforestation and forest degradation emissions, leaving the Northern
Hemisphere (NH) extratropics as the dominant contributor to the net land
sink.

TL;DR: This review presents an overview of the recent findings on the relationships between bacterial and fungal communities and their tree hosts at both the taxonomic and functional levels and discusses the importance of bridging environmental microbiology to genomics and how to integrate the interactions between microorganisms for a better understanding of tree growth and health.
Abstract: Due to land use history, most of the current temperate and boreal forests are developed on nutrient-poor and rocky soils, keeping fertile soils for agriculture. Consequently, the conditions occurring in forest ecosystems strongly differ from those of other terrestrial environments, giving importance to the access of nutritive elements and their recycling for the long-lasting development of forest ecosystems. In this review, we present an overview of the recent findings on the relationships between bacterial and fungal communities and their tree hosts at both the taxonomic and functional levels. We highlighted the common and different deterministic drivers of these microbial communities, focusing on the tree species effect, the different interfaces existing between the trees and their environment, the impact of tree by-products (decaying wood and litter), the impact of soil and seasonal changes, and lastly, the consequences of forestry practices. Depicting both taxonomic and functional diversity based on cultivation-dependent and -independent analyses, we highlight the distribution patterns and the functional traits characterizing bacterial and fungal communities. We also discuss the importance of bridging environmental microbiology to genomics and how to integrate the interactions between microorganisms for a better understanding of tree growth and health.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors improved two common tests used for antioxidant capacity measurements, i.e., reducing power and chelating ability measurements, for appropriate comparisons between the molecules tested and chosen references, as the usual methods are often performed in a qualitative way rather than a quantitative way.
