Microbial activity has been highlighted as one of the main unknowns controlling the fate and
turnover of soil organic matter (SOM) in response to climate change. How microbial …

The effects of cropland abandonment on soil enzyme activity and soil organic carbon (SOC)
stability, along with the driving factors, are poorly understood. Here, we aimed to …

Short-term acceleration of soil organic matter decomposition by increasing temperature
conflicts with the thermal adaptation observed in long-term studies. Here we used the …

Biochars generally result in short-term positive priming of native soil organic carbon (SOC),
but longer-term carbon (C) stabilization, and these effects can be altered by global warming …

The response of the carbon (C) cycle to global warming in terrestrial ecosystems is a major
issue that must be considered when predicting future climate change. Due to warming …

Will warming lead to an increased use of older soil organic carbon (SOC) by microbial
communities, thereby inducing C losses from C‐rich alpine soils? We studied soil microbial …

Soil organic carbon (SOC) dynamics in agro-ecosystem is largely influenced by crop**.
However, quantifying the contributions of various crops has been lacking. Here we …

Soil labile organic carbon (LOC) responds rapidly to environmental changes and plays an
important role in carbon cycle. In this study, the seasonal fluctuations in LOC, the activities of …

Variations in climates and vegetation types along elevations in mountain ecosystems
strongly reshape soil organic matter (SOM) stabilization. However, soil carbon (C) …

Forest thinning management practices such as thinning play a major role in the process of
soil organic carbon (SOC) sequestration, however, the mechanism for SOC variations is still …
