Changes of rainfall seasonal pattern would affect carbon cycling in coastal wetlands by
influencing the transport of water and salt in soils. Seed germination and plant growth in …

Using the Li-8150 multichannel automatic soil CO 2 efflux system, soil respiration was
measured continuously over a one-year period in a coastal wetland in the Yellow River …

Coastal wetlands are considered as a significant sink for global carbon because their
organic-rich soils. Given exposed to shallow water tables, water from groundwater is …

A two consecutive years' field experiment was carried out on four types of semiarid
grassland along precipitation gradient in Xilin River Basin of Inner Mongolia during 2001 …

Vegetation type and density exhibited a considerable patchy distribution at very local scales
in the Yellow River Delta, due to the spatial variation of soil salinity and water scarcity. We …

Aims Winter soil respiration plays a crucial role in terrestrial carbon cycle, which could lose
carbon gained in the growing season. With global warming, the average near-surface air …

To reveal the impact of precipitation on soil respiration and ecosystem respiration in the
desert steppe ecosystem on the northern slope of the Tianshan Mountains. This experiment …

Intensified interannual variability in precipitation is anticipated to alter soil salinization in
coastal wetlands, which may significantly impact the structure and function of ecosystems …

Aims: Atmospheric nitrogen deposition derived from fossil-fuel combustion, fertilization, land
clearing and biomass burning is occurring over almost the entire world. As an important …

Natural wetlands play an important role in global carbon cycle. Understanding the carbon
cycling in coastal wetlands has great significance for estimating the carbon budget of coastal …
