Global patterns of phosphatase activity in natural soils
Soil phosphatase levels strongly control the biotic pathways of phosphorus (P), an essential
element for life, which is often limiting in terrestrial ecosystems. We investigated the …

The phosphorus‐rich signature of fire in the soil–plant system: a global meta‐analysis
The biogeochemical and stoichiometric signature of vegetation fire may influence post‐fire
ecosystem characteristics and the evolution of plant 'fire traits'. Phosphorus (P), a potentially …

Optimisation of fuel reduction burning regimes for carbon, water and vegetation outcomes
Fire plays a critical role in biodiversity, carbon balance, soil erosion, and nutrient and
hydrological cycles. While empirical evidence shows that fuel reduction burning can reduce …

Plant community regulates soil multifunctionality in a tropical dry forest
Tropical dry forest (TDF) covers large areas of tropics and characterized by a mosaic type of
plant communities that occur as the co-dominant multi-species sites to predominant mono …

Prescribed fire alters foliar stoichiometry and nutrient resorption in the understorey of a subtropical eucalypt forest
Background and aims Changes to soil nutrient concentrations following vegetation fire may
affect biogeochemical cycling and foliar stoichiometry. Phosphorus (P)-limited plant …

Changes in soil microbial response across year following a wildfire in tropical dry forest
Wildfire is a recurrent ecological disturbance in the tropical dry forest (TDF) due to high fuel
load and lengthy dry season. TDF covers a large area of the tropics, but relatively few …

Resiliencies of soil phosphorus fractions after natural summer fire are governed by microbial activity and cation availability in a semi-arid Inceptisol
The unintended impact of natural summer fire on soil is complicated and rather less studied
than its above-ground impact. Recognising the impact of a fire on silvopastoral soils and …

Shifts in soil phosphorus fractions under elevated CO2 and N addition in model forest ecosystems in subtropical China
Phosphorus (P) often limits plant growth in subtropical forests. Many studies have focused
on plant P responses to rising atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO 2) and increasing nitrogen …

Fire alters soil labile stoichiometry and litter nutrients in Australian eucalypt forests
Ecological stoichiometry may be used to investigate the impacts of fire regime, as fire regime
can influence the cycling and balance of elements within forest ecosystems. We investigated …
