The addition of fresh substrates can alter the decomposition of the native soil organic matter,
referred to as the priming effect (PE). It is a crucial process within the cycling of soil organic …

It is widely accepted that phosphorus (P) limits microbial metabolic processes and thus soil
organic carbon (SOC) decomposition in tropical forests. Global change factors like elevated …

Forest ecosystems are important global soil carbon (C) reservoirs, but their capacity to
sequester C is susceptible to climate change factors that alter the quantity and quality of C …

The turnover of SOC in soils is strongly influenced by the availability of substrate and
nutrients, especially nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P). Here, we assessed how long-term …

Soil nitrogen (N) availability plays an important role in regulating priming effects (PE). In this
study, we aimed to investigate the effects of long-term N fertilization on PE under single and …

Background It is well known that litter releases dissolved organic carbon (DOC), which
would impact the role of litter in soil nitrogen (N) transformation. Thus, this study aimed to …

To examine the perturbation of atmospheric nitrogen (N) deposition on soil N status and the
biogeochemical cycle is meaningful for understanding forest function evolution with …

Elevated atmospheric nitrogen (N) deposition potentially enhances the degree of
phosphorus (P) limitation in tropical and subtropical forests. However, it remains elusive that …

Input of root litter can alter soil organic carbon (SOC) dynamics via causing priming effect
(PE) on native SOC decomposition and forming new SOC. However, it is unknown how …

Organic fertilizer application has been proved to improve soil fertility, but it is not yet known
whether organic fertilizers can improve soil quality and maintain soil health. Here, we …
