The application of ecological stoichiometry to plant–microbial–soil organic matter transformations
Elemental stoichiometry constitutes an inherent link between biogeochemistry and the
structure and processes within food webs, and thus is at the core of ecosystem functioning …

Increasing soil carbon storage: mechanisms, effects of agricultural practices and proxies. A review
The international 4 per 1000 initiative aims at supporting states and non-governmental
stakeholders in their efforts towards a better management of soil carbon (C) stocks. These …

Modeling ecosystem-scale carbon dynamics in soil: the microbial dimension
J Schimel - Soil Biology and Biochemistry, 2023 - Elsevier
In predicting how soil C fluxes and stocks will change with the environment, models are a
critical tool for integrating datasets with theory. Models developed in the 1980's were based …

Explicitly representing soil microbial processes in Earth system models
Microbes influence soil organic matter decomposition and the long‐term stabilization of
carbon (C) in soils. We contend that by revising the representation of microbial processes …

Microbial storage and its implications for soil ecology
Organisms throughout the tree of life accumulate chemical resources, in particular forms or
compartments, to secure their availability for future use. Here we review microbial storage …

Patterns and mechanisms of nutrient resorption in plants
Nutrient resorption (NR) plays a key role in the nutrient conservation of plants. However, a
fundamental understanding of the mechanisms that control NR remains limited. In this …

Microbial carbon use efficiency predicted from genome-scale metabolic models
Respiration by soil bacteria and fungi is one of the largest fluxes of carbon (C) from the land
surface. Although this flux is a direct product of microbial metabolism, controls over …

The Millennial model: in search of measurable pools and transformations for modeling soil carbon in the new century
Soil organic carbon (SOC) can be defined by measurable chemical and physical pools, such
as mineral-associated carbon, carbon physically entrapped in aggregates, dissolved …

Effects of winter soil warming on crop biomass carbon loss from organic matter degradation
Global warming poses an unprecedented threat to agroecosystems. Although temperature
increases are more pronounced during winter than in other seasons, the impact of winter …
