Enzymes are considered to be a key soil component catalysing important transformations
related to decomposition and nutrient turnover, and their activity in soil can be used as a …

In a litter manipulation experiment in a temperate deciduous oak forest in Central Europe,
we examined soil carbon contents and density fractions, as well as β-glucosidase and …

In a Quercetum petraeae–cerris forest in northeastern Hungary, we examined effects of litter
input alterations on the quantity and quality soil carbon stocks and soil CO 2 emissions …

Background and aims We examined the influence of litter quality and litter depth on soil
microclimate in the detrital manipulation plots in the Síkfőkút Detrital Input and Removal …

Forest vegetation and soils have been suggested as potentially important sinks for carbon
(C) with appropriate management and thus are implicated as effective tools in stabilizing …

Simple Summary Global climate change has a significant impact on soil decomposition
processes through the alteration of temperature and precipitation and, in connection with …

The goal of this research was to develop modified analytical method for the quantitative
analysis of ergosterol, which is highly effective marker for fungal biomass. We suggest that …

Soil enzyme activities are “sensors” of soil organic matter (SOM) decomposition since they
integrate information about microbial status and physico-chemical condition of soils. We …

The increasing temperature enhances soil respiration differently depend on different
conditions (soil moisture, soil organic matter, the activity of soil microbes). It is an essential …

Decline of Zagros forest ecosystems assumes to be a multi-dimensional, complicated, and
national problem so that it is rather difficult to find a solution due to multiplicity of affecting …
