Soil carbon storage capacity of drylands under altered fire regimes
The determinants of fire-driven changes in soil organic carbon (SOC) across broad
environmental gradients remains unclear, especially in global drylands. Here we combined …

Canopy photosynthetic capacity drives contrasting age dynamics of resource use efficiencies between mature temperate evergreen and deciduous forests
Forest resource use efficiencies (RUEs) can vary with tree age, but the nature of these
trends and their underlying mechanisms are not well understood. Understanding the age …

Changes in soil moisture drive soil methane uptake along a fire regeneration chronosequence in a eucalypt forest landscape
Disturbance associated with severe wildfires (WF) and WF simulating harvest operations
can potentially alter soil methane (CH 4) oxidation in well‐aerated forest soils due to the …

Soil methane oxidation in both dry and wet temperate eucalypt forests shows a near-identical relationship with soil air-filled porosity
Well-drained, aerated soils are important sinks for atmospheric methane (CH 4) via the
process of CH 4 oxidation by methane-oxidising bacteria (MOB). This terrestrial CH 4 sink …
