Soil organic carbon (SOC) is heterogeneous and consists of multiple pools differing in
physical and chemical properties. SOC stocks are expected to increase in response to …

Recent evidence suggests that changes in carbon-degrading extracellular enzyme activities
(C-EEAs) can help explain soil organic carbon (SOC) dynamics under nitrogen (N) addition …

To monitor soil biological quality, it is of paramount importance to assess how chemically
diverse organic residue amendments reciprocate to organic matter. The present incubation …

Improving salt-affected soil health using different strategies is of great significance for
Sustainable Development Goals. The effects of biochar as a sustainable carbon negative …

Anthropogenic global change fundamentally impacts ecosystem biogeochemical cycling.
Although litter decomposition is a crucial component of carbon (C) cycling, its response to …

Litter input essentially regulates soil nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) pools in natural
ecosystems, but uncertainties remain about how this regulation is affected by increasing N …

Background and aims The decomposition of shoot and root litter has been extensively
studied in natural ecosystems. Our understanding of the decomposition of plant litter …

Abstract Background and Aims Plant and microbial-derived carbon (C) constitute the soil C
pool and determine its response to N deposition. However, the response of plant and …

Crop residue decomposition is an important part of the carbon cycle in agricultural
ecosystems, and microorganisms are widely recognized as key drivers during this process …

Abstract Ground-level ozone (O 3) pollution affects both the biochemical traits of plants and
the decomposition of litter, consequently altering nutrient cycling in ecosystems. However …
