Enhancing the terrestrial ecosystem carbon sink (referred to as terrestrial C sink) is an
important way to slow down the continuous increase in atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) …

Climate change has been partially mitigated by an increasing net land carbon sink in the
terrestrial biosphere; understanding the processes that drive this sink is thus essential for …

It is unequivocal that the increases in atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4)
and nitrous oxide (N2O) since the pre-industrial period are caused by human activities. The …

Atmospheric carbon dioxide concentration ([CO2]) is increasing, which increases leaf‐scale
photosynthesis and intrinsic water‐use efficiency. These direct responses have the potential …

Over 70% of soil organic carbon (SOC) is stored at a depth greater than 20 cm belowground.
A portion of this deep SOC actively cycles on annual to decadal timescales and is sensitive …

Soil organic carbon (SOC), as the largest terrestrial carbon pool, plays an important role in
global carbon (C) cycling, which may be significantly impacted by global changes such as …

Soil organic matter (SOM) is the largest actively cycling reservoir of terrestrial carbon (C),
and the majority of SOM in Earth's mineral soils (~ 65%) is mineral‐associated organic …

Three decades of research have demonstrated that biodiversity can promote the functioning
of ecosystems. Yet, it is unclear whether the positive effects of biodiversity on ecosystem …

Global atmospheric nitrogen deposition significantly affects the nutrient cycling and C–N–P
stoichiometry in ecosystems. Herein, a global meta-analysis was conducted based on 898 …

The sensitivity of soil microbial respiration to warming (Q 10) remains a major source of
uncertainty surrounding the projections of soil carbon emissions to the atmosphere as the …
