Figure 6 Ramadan (2026): Top 30 differentially abundant ASVs in soil treated with chemical mixture (ECs), polypropylene microplastics (PP-MPs), and their combination (ECs + PP-MPs) after 15 days of inocubation. Differential abundance tests were performed with the Kruskal-Wallis test followed by LSD post hoc test. * indicates significant differences at P < 0.05 and ** indicates significant differences at P < 0.01.

The use of newly assimilated photosynthates by soil autotrophic and heterotrophic respiration on a diurnal scale Abstract. The regulatory role of plant carbohydrate status and root exudation on soil CO2 efflux has been demonstrated, yet the underlying mechanisms, particularly through root respiration, remain lar...

🌿 New publication from our ECCB grad student and the #ForestEcology Lab team!

This study reveals how recently fixed carbon from photosynthesis drives soil respiration dynamics on a diurnal scale.

🌱 What we found:

- Soil respiration temperature thresholds vary across vegetation types and climates.

- Soil moisture strongly interacts with temperature responses.

- A single “universal” temperature response is not enough for accurate carbon-cycle models.

#soilrespiration #drylands

Vegetation type and climate determine temperature thresholds of soil respiration across drylands Soil respiration (SR) is a key component of terrestrial carbon-climate feedbacks, yet its seasonal dynamics in drylands remain poorly understood. In m…

🧪 Excited to share a new paper:

“Vegetation type and climate determine temperature thresholds of soil respiration” in Soil Biology & Biochemistry.
