Our inadequate understanding of how plant\u2013microbial  interactions alter soil carbon decomposition may lead to poor model  predictions of terrestrial carbon feedbacks to the atmosphere. Roots,  mycorrhizal fungi and free-living soil microbes can alter soil carbon  decomposition through exudation of carbon into soil. Exudates of simple  carbon compounds can increase microbial activity because microbes are  typically carbon limited. When both roots and mycorrhizal fungi are  present in the soil, they may additively increase carbon decomposition.  However, when mycorrhizas are isolated from roots, they may limit soil  carbon decomposition by competing with free-living decomposers for  resources. We manipulated the access of roots and mycorrhizal fungi to  soil in situ in a temperate mixed deciduous forest. We added 13C-labelled  substrate to trace metabolized carbon in respiration and measured  carbon-degrading microbial extracellular enzyme activity and soil carbon  pools. We used our data in a mechanistic soil carbon decomposition model  to simulate and compare the effects of root and mycorrhizal fungal  presence on soil carbon dynamics over longer time periods. Contrary to  what we predicted, root and mycorrhizal biomass did not interact to  additively increase microbial activity and soil carbon degradation. The  metabolism of 13C-labelled starch was highest when root biomass was high  and mycorrhizal biomass was low. These results suggest that mycorrhizas  may negatively interact with the free-living microbial community to  influence soil carbon dynamics, a hypothesis supported by our enzyme  results. Our steady-state model simulations suggested that root presence  increased mineral-associated and particulate organic carbon pools, while  mycorrhizal fungal presence had a greater influence on particulate than  mineral-associated organic carbon pools. Synthesis. Our results suggest  that the activity of enzymes involved in organic matter decomposition was  contingent upon root\u2013mycorrhizal\u2013microbial interactions. Using our  experimental data in a decomposition simulation model, we show that  root\u2013mycorrhizal\u2013microbial interactions may have longer-term legacy  effects on soil carbon sequestration. Overall, our study suggests that  roots stimulate microbial activity in the short term, but contribute to  soil carbon storage over longer periods of time.", "keywords": ["2.

Appropriate species compositions and spacing regimes are critical to achieve ecosystem benefits and improve yields of all the component crops. Cocoa (Theobroma cacao) is an important cash crop globally but it requires shade for survival and growth. However, the effects of shade-tree species composition and spacing regime on nutrient cycling in cocoa plantations are not well understood. This study investigated the effects of shade tree species and spacing regimes on soil and plant nutrient availability at 8 years after plantation establishment in Papua New Guinea. Three cocoa intercropping systems were established in which T. cacao was planted with either a non-legume timber tree, Canarium indicum, or a legume non-timber tree, Gliricidia sepium. The shade-tree spacing regimes included either 8 m \u00d7 16 m or 8 m \u00d7 8 m in the Theobroma + Canarium plantations. There was an ongoing thinning regime in the Theobroma + Gliricidia plantation, with a final shade-tree spacing of 12 m \u00d7 12 m. Soil total carbon (TC) and total nitrogen (TN) were significantly higher in the Theobroma + Gliricidia plantation with 12 m \u00d7 12 m spacing and the Theobroma + Canarium plantation with 8 m \u00d7 16 m spacing than in the Theobroma + Canarium plantation with 8 m \u00d7 8 m spacing. Foliar TN and P were correlated with soil TN and P, respectively, whereas no correlation was detected between soil and leaf K concentrations. Foliar TN, P and K were under ideal concentrations for T. cacao in all of the plantations. The Theobroma + Gliricidia plantation had higher soil water extractable phosphorus (P) than the two Theobroma + Canarium plantations, probably due to frequent pruning of the G. sepium trees. Foliar C isotope composition (\u03b413C) of T. cacao suggested that T. cacao close to G. sepium or close to C. indicum with spacing of 8 m \u00d7 16 m and 8 m \u00d7 8 m had similar light interception. However, increased C. indicum spacing increased the light interception of T. cacao trees that were not planted next to C. indicum. This study indicated that non-legume timber trees with an optimized spacing regime can be used as overstorey shade trees for T. cacao. However, our study indicated all three plantations required fertilisation and better nutrient management.", "keywords": ["571", "stable isotopes", "FoR 16 (Studies in Human Society)", "Canarium indicum", "Soil fertility", "Gliricidia sepium", "333", "630", "Papua New Guinea", "veterinary and food sciences", "Stable isotopes", "2.

Soil respiration is the second largest flux of carbon (C) in these ecosystems, and the objective of this study was to understand how soil respiration responded to the experimental treatments as these fast-growing stands of pure aspen and birch + aspen approached maximum leaf area. Rates of soil respiration were typically lowest in the elevated O3 treatment. Elevated CO2 significantly stimulated soil respiration (8-26%) compared to the control treatment in both community types over all three growing seasons. In years 6-7 of the experiment, the greatest rates of soil respiration occurred in the interaction treatment (CO2 + O3), and rates of soil respiration were 15-25% greater in this treatment than in the elevated CO2 treatment, depending on year and community type. Two of the treatments, elevated CO2 and elevated CO2 + O3, were fumigated with 13C-depleted CO2, and in these two treatments we used standard isotope mixing models to understand the proportions of new and old C in soil respiration. During the peak of the growing season, C fixed since the initiation of the experiment in 1998 (new C) accounted for 60-80% of total soil respiration. The isotope measurements independently confirmed that more new C was respired from the interaction treatment compared to the elevated CO2 treatment. A period of low soil moisture late in the 2003 growing season resulted in soil respiration with an isotopic signature 4-6 per thousand enriched in 13C compared to sample dates when the percentage soil moisture was higher. In 2004, an extended period of low soil moisture during August and early September, punctuated by a significant rainfall event, resulted in soil respiration that was temporarily 4-6 per thousand more depleted in 13C. Up to 50% of the Earth's forests will see elevated concentrations of both CO2 and O3 in the coming decades and these interacting atmospheric trace gases stimulated soil respiration in this study.", "keywords": ["0106 biological sciences", "Science", "Ecology and Evolutionary Biology", "Cell Respiration", "Acer", "Carbon Cycling", "Plant Roots", "01 natural sciences", "Trees", "Soil", "Ozone", "Stable Isotope", "Air Pollution", "Health Sciences", "\u03b4 13 C", "Global Change", "Cellular and Developmental Biology", "Betula", "Ecosystem", "Soil Microbiology", "Carbon Isotopes", "Atmosphere", "Natural Resources and Environment", "Molecular", "Carbon Dioxide", "15.

Accordingly, we measured soil and foliar N concentration and N isotope ratios (\u03b415N) throughout the campina-campinarana transect and compared to published dense terra-firme forest results. There were no differences between white-sand vegetation types in regard to soil N concentration, C:N ratio and \u03b415N across the transect.

Net effects result from the combination of direct impacts of grazing on biogeochemical characteristics of microsites with indirect effects on relative cover of vegetated and unvegetated microsites. Within five independent areas, we sampled surface soils in sites subjected to three grazing intensities: (1) ungrazed sites inside grazing exclosures, (2) moderately grazed sites adjacent to them, and (3) intensely grazed sites within the same paddock. Grazing significantly reduced soil C and N pools, although this pattern was clearest in intensely grazed sites. This net effect was due to the combination of a direct reduction of soil N content in bare soil patches, and indirect effects mediated by the increase of the cover of bare soil microsites, with lower C and N content than either grass or shrub microsites. This increase in bare soil cover was accompanied by a reduction in cover of preferred grass species and standing dead material. Finally, stable isotope signatures varied significantly among grazed and ungrazed sites, with \u03b415N and \u03b413C significantly depleted in intensely grazed sites, suggesting reduced mineralization with increased grazing intensity. In the Patagonian steppe, grazing appears to exert a negative effect on soil C and N cycles; sound management practices must incorporate the importance of species shifts within life form, and the critical role of standing dead material in maintaining soil C and N stocks and biogeochemical processes.", "keywords": ["0106 biological sciences", "2.

However, little is known about how modifications of the diversity of soil microbial communities induced by fresh organic matter (FOM) inputs can regulate carbon cycling. Here, we investigated the decomposition of two 13C labeled crop residues (wheat and alfalfa) and the dynamics of the genetic structure and taxonomic composition of the soil bacterial communities decomposing 13C labeled FOM and native unlabeled soil organic matter (SOM), respectively. It was achieved by combining the stable isotope probing method with molecular tools (DNA genotyping and pyrosequencing of 16S rDNA). Although a priming effect (PE) was always induced by residue addition, its intensity increased with the degradability of the plant residue. The input of both wheat and alfalfa residues induced a rapid dynamics of FOM-degrading communities, corresponding to the stimulation of bacterial phyla which have been previously described as copiotrophic organisms. However, the dynamics and the identity of the bacterial groups stimulated depended on the residue added, with Firmicutes dominating in the wheat treatment and Proteobacteria dominating in the alfalfa treatment after 3\u00a0days of incubation. In both treatments, SOM-degrading communities were dominated by Acidobacteria, Verrucomicrobia, and Gemmatimonadetes phyla which have been previously described as oligotrophic organisms. An early stimulation of SOM-degrading populations mainly belonging to Firmicutes and Bacteroidetes groups was observed in the alfalfa treatment whereas no change occurred in the wheat treatment. Our findings support the hypothesis that the succession of bacterial taxonomic groups occurring in SOM- and FOM-degrading communities during the degradation process may be an important driver of the PE, and consequently of carbon dynamics in soil.", "keywords": ["0301 basic medicine", "2.

Attempts to reclaim mangrove swamps for rice growing have shown the importance of a greater knowledge on the effects of land use change on soil properties and soil carbon storage. To address this problem, a study was undertaken within Cacheur and Oio regions in Northern Guinea-Bissau, along the following chronosequence: mangrove, rice and abandoned fields. Changes in C/N ratio, \u03b4 13 C and \u03b4 15 N values were used to study the dynamics of C 3  plant-derived and marine-derived carbon (C) in order to analyze the origin of soil organic matter (SOM) and estimate the impact of marine contribution to SOC. Isotopic signatures within the mangrove swamp rice soils suggested the inwelling of marine derived C. SOC stock was estimated in 0\u201310, 0\u201320, 0\u201340 and 0\u201380\u00a0cm soil layers using fixed soil depth (FD) and fixed soil mass (FM) approaches. The significantly highest values were found in mangrove soils and the lowest in the abandoned fields for both sites, while no significant differences were recorded for the topsoil (0\u201310\u00a0cm) between mangrove and rice fields. The results of this study revealed that conversion of mangrove to rice cropping has technical potential of SOC sequestration in the upper part of the soil (0\u201340\u00a0cm). On the other hand, the abandonment of the fields caused decreases in carbon storage along the whole soil depth.

Thinning of native forests helps to preserve native tree species and is more sustainable than replacing native forest stands with mono-species plantations to produce timber. This study aimed to explore the effects of native forest thinning on soil-plant carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) dynamics in two experimental sites, Esk (5\u00a0years post-thinning) and Herberton (7\u00a0years post-thinning), situated in Queensland, Australia. The two sites had different thinning regimes. The final stocking rates varied between 75 and 200 stems ha\u22121 at Esk and between 250 and 400 stems ha\u22121 at Herberton. The thinned plots were compared to un-thinned plots. Soil samples were collected to measure labile C and N. Leaf samples were collected from C. variegata and C. citriodora in Esk and Herberton respectively. Thinning did not change soil total C, total N, \u03b415N and inorganic N at either Esk or Herberton. However, at Esk, intensive thinning resulted in decreases in water soluble total N (WSTN). Foliar \u03b413C did not vary with respect to thinning whereas foliar \u03b415N values were more enriched in thinned areas than those of un-thinned plots. The stepwise linear regression indicated that both foliar total N and \u03b415N were explained mainly by soil TN and WSTN. Thinning did not change soil C and N most likely due to the retention of thinned materials on site and their incorporation into soil. Foliar \u03b413C was not thinning-dependent due to homeostatic maintenance of the ratio of intercellular to ambient CO2 concentrations during photosynthesis. In our study, soil N was not a limiting factor for foliar N, however, foliar N was mainly driven by WSTN which may foreshadow a possible N limitation in severely thinned plots in the long term. We conclude that forest thinning does not decrease soil C and N availability in native Corymbia forests for several years post-thinning if the thinned materials are retained on site.", "keywords": ["570", "Corymbia spp", "Inorganic nitrogen", "stable isotopes", "veterinary and food sciences", "eucalyptus spp", "Other environmental sciences not elsewhere classified", "FoR 06 (Biological Sciences)", "Stable isotopes", "Farm forestry", "580", "Agricultural", "farm forestry", "FoR 07 (Agricultural and Veterinary Sciences)", "inorganic nitrogen", "04 agricultural and veterinary sciences", "15.

Here we investigate the dynamics of priming effects and ask whether the source of primed carbon is microbial biomass or soil organic matter and whether specific microbial groups, as identified by phospholipid fatty acid (PLFA) biomarkers, may be important in causing them. We measured \u03b413C within soil CO2 efflux and PLFA biomarkers following C3 soil priming effects caused by additions of C4 sugar-cane sucrose and maize (Zea mays L.) leaf-litter chopped and ground. All additions caused an initial pulse of priming effect CO2 and a later pulse of substrate-derived CO2, showing that priming effects can be induced rapidly following changes in substrate supply. Priming effects persisted over 32 days and led to a loss of soil carbon, with an increase in soil carbon decomposition of 169% following sucrose addition, 44% following chopped maize and 67% following ground maize additions. An increased concentration of soil-derived carbon within specific PLFA biomarkers provided evidence that a source of the primed carbon was soil organic matter. Certain Gram negative bacteria, identified by PLFA biomarkers (16:1\u03c95, 16:1\u03c97), showed increased uptake of soil carbon for both sucrose and maize treatments and may be directly linked to priming effects.

While Zr isotopic anomalies in meteorites have been widely studied, mass dependant Zr stable isotope fractionation during geological processing has been untouched. Here, we report Zr stable isotopic data for terrestrial igneous rocks and present a novel method for the determination of Zr stable isotope ratios within natural geological materials using ion exchange, double-spike, multiple-collector inductively coupled mass spectrometry (MC-ICPMS). Zirconium is isolated from the rock matrix via a chromatographic separation protocol using a first pass column with AG1-X8 anion exchange resin, and a second pass column containing Eichrom\u00ae DGA resin. A 91Zr\u201396Zr double-spike was created from enriched single 91Zr and 96Zr isotope spikes. Samples were combined with the Zr double-spike at a 43:57 spike:sample [Zr] ratio, prior to dissolution and column chemistry. After column chemistry the purified sample solutions were analysed on a Thermo Scientific Neptune Plus MC-ICPMS and the data was reduced using IsoSpike, with the final Zr isotope data being reported as the per mil deviation of the 94Zr/90Zr from the IPGP-Zr standard (\u03b494/90ZrIPGP-Zr). The \u03b494/90ZrIPGP-Zr of six igneous standard reference materials: two basalts (BHVO-2 and JB-2), one andesite (AGV-2), two granites (GA and GS-N) and a serpentinite (UB-N) as well as one individual zircon grain (Plesovice zircon), are presented using this method. Sample measurements are presented with an analytical uncertainty of \u00b1~0.05\u2030 (2sd) for \u03b494/90ZrIPGP-Zr and these rocks exhibit isotopic variations of ~0.15\u2030 for \u03b494/90ZrIPGP-Zr. These results demonstrate that natural variations of Zr isotopes occur within terrestrial igneous rocks, and are resolvable with this method. Finally the variation of \u03b494/90ZrIPGP-Zr values observed within the magmatic rock reference materials is correlated (R2\u202f=\u202f0.78; n\u202f=\u202f5) with SiO2, suggesting that Zr isotopes could serve as a sensitive tracer of magmatic processes.", "keywords": ["[SDU] Sciences of the Universe [physics]", "Non-traditional stable isotope", "13.

They are among the driest terrestrial samples, although the exact mechanism of water loss and the behaviour of other volatile species during these processes are debated. Based on the difference in magnitude of the Cu and Zn isotopic fractionations in tektites, and the difference of diffusivity between these elements, it was suggested that volatile loss was diffusion-limited. Tin is potentially well suited to testing this model, as it has a lower diffusivity in silicate melts than both Cu and Zn, but a similar volatility to Zn. Here, we analysed the Sn stable isotopic composition in a suite of seven tektites, representing three of the four known tektite strewn fields, and for which Zn and Cu isotopes were previously reported. Tin is enriched in the heavier isotopes (\u22652.5\u2030 on the 122Sn/118Sn ratio) in tektites, correlated with the degree of Sn elemental depletion in their respective samples as well as with Cu and Zn isotope ratios, implying a common control. While the isotope fractionation of Sn, Cu and Zn is a result of volatility, the magnitude of isotope fractionation is strongly moderated by their relative rates of diffusion in the molten tektite droplets.

Ocean island basalt samples, spanning a range of radiogenic isotopic flavours (HIMU, EM) show a limited range in \u03b494/90ZrIPGP-Zr (0.046\u202f\u00b1\u202f0.037\u2030; 2sd, n\u202f=\u202f13). Similarly, MORB samples with chondrite-normalized La/Sm of >0.7 show a limited range in \u03b494/90ZrIPGP-Zr (0.053\u202f\u00b1\u202f0.040\u2030; 2sd, n\u202f=\u202f8). In contrast, basaltic lavas from mantle sources that have undergone significant melt depletion, such as depleted normal MORB (N-MORB) show resolvable variations in \u03b494/90ZrIPGP-Zr, from \u22120.045\u202f\u00b1\u202f0.018 to 0.074\u202f\u00b1\u202f0.023\u2030. Highly evolved igneous differentiates (>65\u202fwt% SiO2) from Hekla volcano in Iceland are isotopically heavier than less evolved igneous rocks, up to 0.53\u2030. These results suggest that both mantle melt depletion and extreme magmatic differentiation leads to resolvable mass-dependent Zr isotope fractionation. We find that this isotopic fractionation is most likely driven by incorporation of light isotopes of Zr within the 8-fold coordinated sites of zircons, driving residual melts, with a lower coordination chemistry, towards heavier values. Using a Rayleigh fractionation model, we suggest a \u03b1zircon-melt of 0.9995 based on the whole rock \u03b494/90ZrIPGP-Zr values of the samples from Hekla volcano (Iceland). Zirconium isotopic fractionation during melt-depletion of the mantle is less well-constrained, but may result from incongruent melting and incorporation of isotopically light Zr in the 8-fold coordinated M2 site of orthopyroxene. Based on these observations lavas originating from the effect of melt extraction from a depleted mantle source (N-MORB) or that underwent zircon saturation (SiO2\u202f>\u202f65\u202fwt%) are removed from the dataset to give an estimate of the primitive mantle Zr isotope composition of 0.048\u202f\u00b1\u202f0.032\u2030; 2sd, n\u202f=\u202f48. These data show that major controls on Zr fractionation in the Earth result from partial melt extraction in the mantle and by zircon fractionation in differentiated melts.

Previous investigations performed in the Cretaceous Hesbaye chalk aquifer in Eastern Belgium suggested that the dynamics of N2O in the aquifer is controlled by overlapping biochemical processes such as nitrification and denitrification. The current study aims to obtain better insight concerning the factors controlling the distribution of N2O concentration along a vertical dimension in the aquifer, and to capture and quantify the occurrence of nitrification and denitrification processes in the groundwater system. Low-flow groundwater sampling technique was undertaken at different depths in the aquifer to collect groundwater samples aiming at obtaining information about ambient aquifer hydrogeochemical conditions and their effect on the accumulation of GHGs. Afterwards, laboratory stable isotope experiments, using NO3- and NH4+ compounds labeled with heavy 15N isotope, were applied to quantify the rates of nitrification and denitrification processes. Ambient studies suggest that the occurrence of N transformation was related to denitrification while laboratory incubation experiments did not detect it. Such controversial results might be explained by the discrepancy between real aquifer conditions and lab design studies. Thus, additional in situ tracer experiments should be carried out in areas where natural groundwater fluxes do not flush the injected tracer too rapidly.

The high-resolution grain size profile from Enders shares many features with similar data from the previously studied Wauneta site, including three peaks of fine-grained material just above and within the Brady Soil, likely representing response to millennial-scale climatic changes during the Pleistocene-Holocene transition.

In addition, biochar can promote indirect C-sequestration by increasing crop yield while, potentially, reducing C-mineralization. This laboratory study was set up to evaluate effects of biochar on C-mineralization with due attention to source appointment by using (13)C isotope signatures. An arable soil (S) (7.9 g organic C, OC kg(-1)) was amended (single dose of 10 g kg(-1) soil) with dried, grinded maize stover (leaves and stalks), either natural (R) or (13)C enriched (R*), and/or biochar (B/B*) prepared from the maize stover residues (450 \u00b0C). Accordingly, seven different combinations were set up (S, SR, SB, SR*, SB*, SRB*, SR*B) to trace the source of C in CO2 (180 days), dissolved organic-C (115 days) and OC in soil aggregate fractions (90 days). The application of biochar to soil reduced the mineralization of native soil organic C but the effect on maize stover-C mineralization was not consistent. Biochar application decreased the mineralization of the non-enriched maize stover after 90 days, this being consistent with a significant reduction of dissolved organic C concentration from 45 to 18 mg L(-1). However, no significant effect was observed for the enriched maize stover, presumably due to differences between the natural and enriched materials. The combined addition of biochar and enriched maize stover significantly increased (twofold) the presence of native soil organic C or maize derived C in the free microaggregate fraction relative to soil added only with stover. Although consistent effects among C sources and biochar materials remains elusive, our outcomes indicate that some biochar products can reduce mineralization and solubilization of other sources of C while promoting their physical protection in soil particles.", "keywords": ["2.

Microorganisms, when stimulated by the presence of new inputs of labile organic carbon, can mineralize (\u2018prime\u2019) soil organic matter to acquire nutrients. We used stable carbon isotopes to assess how nutrient demand and soil properties constrain mineralization of added labile (sucrose) carbon and pre-existing (primed) soil carbon in tropical forest soils. In a series of lowland tropical forest soils from Panama, we found that the mineralization of fresh labile carbon was accelerated foremost by phosphorus addition, whereas the mineralization of pre-existing soil carbon was constrained foremost by nitrogen addition. However, there was variation in the relative importance of these nutrients in different soils and the largest effects on the acceleration of sucrose metabolism and constraint of priming occurred following the addition of nitrogen and phosphorus together. The respiration responses due to sucrose or primed soil carbon mineralization were reduced at pH below 4.8 and above 6.0. We conclude that in these tropical forest soils, phosphorus availability is more important in promoting microbial mineralization of sucrose carbon, whereas nitrogen availability is more important in constraining the priming of pre-existing soil organic carbon. This response likely arises because nitrogen is more closely coupled to organic matter cycling, whereas phosphorus is abundant in both organic and inorganic forms. These results suggest that the greatest impact of priming on soil carbon stocks will occur in moderately acidic tropical forest soils of low nitrogen availability. Given long-term changes in both atmospheric carbon dioxide and nitrogen deposition, the impact of priming effects on soil carbon in tropical forest soils may be partially constrained by the abundance of nitrogen.", "keywords": ["2.

We present a modified method to quantify the effects of global climate change on plant inputs of carbon to soil based on 13C:12C ratio (\u03b413C) analyses that accounts for isotopic fractionation between inputs and newly created soil carbon. In a four-year study, the effects of elevated CO2 and temperature were determined for reconstructed Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga mensiezii (Mirb.) Franco) ecosystems in which native soil of low nitrogen content was used. The \u03b413C patterns in litter and mineral soil horizons were measured and compared to \u03b413C patterns in live needles, fine roots, and coarse roots. From regression analyses, we calculated the isotopic enrichment in 13C of newly incorporated soil carbon relative to needle and root carbon at 4\u2030 and 2\u2030, respectively. These enrichments must be considered when using shifts in soil \u03b413C to calculate inputs of plant carbon into the soil, and are probably a major factor in the progressive enrichment in 13C with increasing depth in soil profiles. Relative to the total carbon in each layer, the proportion of new carbon from recent photosynthate in each soil layer was 13\u201315% in the A horizon, 7\u20139% in litter layers, and 4% in the B2 and C horizons. New carbon in the A horizon was estimated at 370\u00a0g C\u00a0m\u22122. Carbon concentrations and new carbon in A horizons were correlated (r 2=0.78, n=12), but with a slope of 0.356, indicating that about 36% of net carbon accumulation in the A horizon was from inputs via roots, root exudates or mycorrhizal fungi and 64% of carbon was derived from surface litter decomposition.

Nonetheless, our understanding of nutrient controls remains far from complete and poorly quantified, at least partly due to a lack of informative, comparable, and accessible datasets at regional-to-global scales. A growing research infrastructure of multi-site networks are providing valuable data on C fluxes and stocks and are monitoring their responses to global environmental change and measuring responses to experimental treatments. These networks thus provide an opportunity for improving our understanding of C-nutrient cycle interactions and our ability to model them. However, coherent information on how nutrient cycling interacts with observed C cycle patterns is still generally lacking. Here, we argue that complementing available C-cycle measurements from monitoring and experimental sites with data characterizing nutrient availability will greatly enhance their power and will improve our capacity to forecast future trajectories of terrestrial C cycling and climate. Therefore, we propose a set of complementary measurements that are relatively easy to conduct routinely at any site or experiment and that, in combination with C cycle observations, can provide a robust characterization of the effects of nutrient availability across sites. In addition, we discuss the power of different observable variables for informing the formulation of models and constraining their predictions.

Here, we addressed this gap using 30-y tree ring records of carbon and oxygen isotope measurements and basal area increment from 12 species in 8 North American mature temperate forests. Our goal was to separate the contributions of enhanced photosynthesis and reduced stomatal conductance to WUE trends and to assess consistency between multiple commonly used methods for estimating WUE. Our results show that tree ring-derived estimates of increases in WUE are consistent with estimates from atmospheric measurements and predictions based on an optimal balancing of carbon gains and water costs, but are lower than those based on ecosystem-scale flux observations. Although both physiological mechanisms contributed to rising WUE, enhanced photosynthesis was widespread, while reductions in stomatal conductance were modest and restricted to species that experienced moisture limitations. This finding challenges the hypothesis that rising WUE in forests is primarily the result of widespread, CO             2             -induced reductions in stomatal conductance.           </p", "keywords": ["Water-use efficiency", "Tree rings", "Water", "AmeriFlux", "Biological Sciences", "Carbon Dioxide", "Forests", "15.

Energy crops will need to be grown more on lower grade lands unsuitable for arable crops. Grasslands represent a major land resource for energy crops. In grasslands, where soil organic carbon (SOC) levels can be high, there have been concerns that the carbon mitigation benefits of bioenergy from Miscanthus could be offset by losses in SOC associated with land use change. At a site in Wales (UK), we quantified the relatively short\uffe2\uff80\uff90term impacts (6\uffc2\uffa0years) of four novel Miscanthus hybrids and Miscanthus\uffc2\uffa0\uffc3\uff97\uffc2\uffa0giganteus on SOC in improved grassland. After 6\uffc2\uffa0years, using stable carbon isotope ratios (13C/12C), the amount of Miscanthus derived C (C4) in total SOC was considerable (ca. 12%) and positively correlated to belowground biomass of different hybrids. Nevertheless, significant changes in SOC stocks (0\uffe2\uff80\uff9330\uffc2\uffa0cm) were not detected as C4 Miscanthus carbon replaced the initial C3 grassland carbon; however, initial SOC decreased more in the presence of higher belowground biomass. We ascribed this apparently contradictory result to the rhizosphere priming effect triggered by easily available C sources. Observed changes in SOC partitioning were modelled using the RothC soil carbon turnover model and projected for 20\uffc2\uffa0years showing that there is no significant change in SOC throughout the anticipated life of a Miscanthus crop. We interpret our observations to mean that the new labile C from Miscanthus has replaced the labile C from the grassland and, therefore, planting Miscanthus causes an insignificant change in soil organic carbon. The overall C mitigation benefit is therefore not decreased by depletion of soil C and is due to substitution of fossil fuel by the aboveground biomass, in this instance 73\uffe2\uff80\uff93108\uffc2\uffa0Mg C\uffc2\uffa0ha\uffe2\uff88\uff921 for the lowest and highest yielding hybrids, respectively, after 6\uffc2\uffa0years.</p>", "keywords": ["2.

Both natural and human-mediated changes in plant cover influence abiotic sediment properties and thus have cascading impacts on the biotic community. Using clipping (structural) and light (shading) manipulations in two salt marsh vegetation zones (one dominated by Spartina foliosa and one by Salicornia virginica), we tested whether these plant species exert influence on abiotic environmental factors and examined the mechanisms by which these changes regulate the biotic community. In an unshaded (plant and shade removal) treatment, marsh soils exhibited harsher physical properties, a microalgal community composition shift toward increased diatom dominance, and altered macrofaunal community composition with lower species richness, a larger proportion of insect larvae, and a smaller proportion of annelids, crustaceans, and oligochaetes compared to shaded (plant removal, shade mimic) and control treatment plots. Overall, the shaded treatment plots were similar to the controls. Plant cover removal also resulted in parallel shifts in microalgal and macrofaunal isotopic signatures of the most dynamic species. This suggests that animal responses are seen mainly among microalgae grazers and may be mediated by plant modification of microalgae. Results of these experiments demonstrate how light reduction by the vascular plant canopy can control salt marsh sediment communities in an arid climate.

Knowledge of crop water requirements and the effects of management practices on the amounts of water used for crop transpiration and that lost through soil evaporation is essential for efficient agricultural water management. Therefore, this study investigated the temporal evolution of weekly evaporation and transpiration rates under varying soil water conditions in a conventionally managed soybean field by partitioning evapotranspiration based on a water and \u03b418O-stable isotope mass balance. The estimated rates were considered in combination with vertical soil water distribution, atmospheric demand (based on crop evapotranspiration), actual evapotranspiration, and the plant development stage. This allowed for the weekly rates to be compared to the current conditions resulting from dry periods, rain or irrigation events, and the extent of the canopy. The range of weekly transpiration/evapotranspiration, from blossom to maturation, was between 0.60 (\u00b10.11) and 0.82 (\u00b10.10). Within this range, transpiration/evapotranspiration shifted depending on the vertical soil water distribution and meteorological conditions. During dry soil surface periods, evaporation dropped to almost zero, whereas a wet surface layer substantially increased evaporation/evapotranspiration, even under a closed canopy. Under given conditions, the application of a few intense irrigations before the drying of the soil surface is recommended.

We conclude that in this soil system, the increased abundance of fungi in both soils and the altered C cycling patterns in the F:B dominated soils highlight the significant role of fungi in litter decomposition and indicate that F:B ratios are linked to higher C storage potential.", "keywords": ["Microbiology (medical)", "Proteomics", "0301 basic medicine", "environment/Bioclimatology", "Supplementary Data", "[SDE.MCG]Environmental Sciences/Global Changes", "stable isotopes", "litter decomposition", "Microbiology", "03 medical and health sciences", "proteomics", "[SDU.STU.GC]Sciences of the Universe [physics]/Earth Sciences/Geochemistry", "[SDV.EE]Life Sciences [q-bio]/Ecology", "[SDU.STU.GC] Sciences of the Universe [physics]/Earth Sciences/Geochemistry", "soil carbon", "European Commission", "bacteria", "Stable isotopes", "2.

By applying 13C-labeled Tabebuia heterophylla leaves and 15N-labeled Andropogon glomeratus grass, we investigated resource utilization by three earthworm species (invasive endogeic Pontoscolex corethrurus, native anecic Estherella sp, and native endogeic Onychochaeta borincana) and their effects on soil C and N dynamics in Puerto Rican soils in a 22-day laboratory experiment. Changes of 13C/C and 15N/N in soils, earthworms, and microbial populations were analyzed to evaluate resource utilization by earthworms and their influences on C and N dynamics. Estherella spp. utilized the 13C-labeled litter; however, its utilization on the 13C-labeled litter reduced when cultivated with P. corethrurus and O. borincana. Both P. corethrurus and O. borincana utilized the 13C-labeled litter and 15C-labeled grass roots and root exudates. Pontoscolex corethrurus facilitated soil respiration by stimulating 13C-labeled microbial activity; however, this effect was suppressed possibly due to the changes in the microbial activities or community when coexisting with O. borincana. Increased soil N mineralization by individual Estherella spp. and O. borincana was reduced in the mixed-species treatments. The rapid population growth of P. corethrurus may increase competition pressure on food resources on the local earthworm community. The relevance of resource availability to the population growth of P. corethrurus and its significance as an invasive species is a topic in need of future research.</p>", "keywords": ["2.

The dataset consists of\u00a0\u03b413C and\u00a0\u03b415N (\u2030)\u00a0stable isotope ratios of taxa of fish, macroinvertebrates, plants, alga, and soil. If applicable, the length of the taxon was included. Below, methodological information is provided on the study site, the sampling process, the sampling preparation, and the stable isotope analysis. For references, see the published paper in Aquatic Invasions. \u00a0 Study site The study site concerned a section of the lowland brook Tungelroysebeek (51\u00b014.38'N, 005\u00b052.086'E \u2013 51\u00b014.26'N, 005\u00b047.77'E) near the village Tungelroy in the Province of Limburg, the Netherlands. This brook of 35 km length has several tributaries before discharging into the River Meuse. Over most of its course, the brook was meandering and had a well-developed riparian and hydrophyte vegetation. During sampling the mean water temperature was 16.0 \u00b0C, conductivity 664 \u00b5S/cm, pH 7.3, water velocity 0.2 m/s, depth 70 cm, and Secchi depth 60 cm. The brook width ranged between 5-8 m and its bed substrate predominantly consisted of sand. \u00a0 Sampling Samples of fish, macroinvertebrates, macrophytes, dead organic material, and bottom soil substrate were collected in October 2019. The samples were collected in the stretch of the brook that is denoted in Fig. 1 of the paper. Fish were caught using handheld electrofishing equipment (Bretschneider EFGI 650). After catching, the fish were euthanized using a neutralized benzocaine solution of 100 mg l-1. Macroinvertebrates were collected using\u00a070x55 cm dip nets with a mesh size of 1 mm. Helophytes, floating-leaved, and submerged aquatic macrophytes were collected by hand. Soil samples were collected by means of a hollow soil sampling tube with a diameter of 5 cm. A Nikon SMZ800 stereo microscope with a 10-63 magnification was used for the identification of small macroinvertebrates. \u00a0 Sample preparation\u00a0 All samples were transported to the laboratory and stored separately at -18\u00b0 C until preparation. To obtain muscle samples a piece of 0.5-1 cm of the dorsal tissue of each fish was dissected. Muscle tissue samples were dissected from fish, crayfish, and unionid mussels. Other macroinvertebrates were stored alive for two days at 5 \u00b0C to empty their intestinal contents. Subsequently, these invertebrates were rinsed with tap water and then with demineralized water before processing. From unionid mussels, muscle tissue of a similar size was dissected. Of small mollusks, all soft body tissues were used.\u00a0For small mollusks and other macroinvertebrates, individuals of the same species were pooled to obtain enough material (0.22-0.26 mg) for analyses. For crayfish, muscle tissue of the abdomen was used while the intestine was removed. The stems, leaves, and roots of individual plants were pooled.\u00a0 After preparation, all samples were stored at -80 \u00b0C until freeze drying. Freeze drying was carried out at -90 \u00b0C for 24-48 hours for fish and macroinvertebrate samples. Plant, dead organic material, and soil samples were freeze dried at least 48 hours. After freeze drying, the samples were grounded with aluminum balls, for 2 min at 30\u00a0rpm, using a Retsch MM 400. Subsequently, the grounded samples were weighted in tin cups (Elemental Microanalysis 8 x 5 mm) and prepared for isotope analyses. For the fish and invertebrate samples, 0.22-0.26 mg was weighted. For plants and soil, separate samples were weighted for carbon (10 mg) and nitrogen (40 mg) analyzes.\u00a0 \u00a0 Stable isotope analyses Carbon and nitrogen stable isotopes were measured using a Thermo Scientific FLASH 2000 HT Elemental Analyzer with a Thermo Scientific DELTA V Advantage Next Generation Isotope Ratio mass spectrometer. Reference gasses were calibrated with the IAEA standards (IAEA-N-2 and IAEA-CH-6), with a maximum deviation of 0.15\u2030. As an internal standard control, caffeine was used and the 13C/12C and 15N/14N of every sample were determined (in \u2030). The isotope ratios (R)\u00a0\u03b413C and\u00a0\u03b415N are relative to Vienna PDB and atmospheric N2 and were calculated by: \u00a0 \u03b413C or\u00a0\u03b415N = (Rsample/Rstandard \u2212 1) * 1000 \u00a0 Abstract\u00a0 Co-occurring and morphologically similar species have adapted to differential niches for minimizing competition. An invasive alien species can occupy an 'empty niche' in introduced ranges. Alternatively, the invader may occupy an overlapping niche and compete with native species to a certain degree. In a Western European lowland brook with high nutrient loads, we studied a benthic community of five fish species, including two alien species: an Asian weatherfish (Misgurnus bipartitus) and the western tubenose goby (Proterorhinus semilunaris). The native species concerned stone loach (Barbatula barbatula), spined loach (Cobitis taenia), and gudgeon (Gobio gobio). Because of the unknown effects of the invaders on native benthic fish species, the trophic position, isotopic niche overlap, and potential food competition among these species were identified using nitrogen and carbon stable isotopes. The trophic levels of the five fish species indicated that they are secondary consumers. Body size of native fish species correlated significantly negative with their\u00a0\u03b415N (\u2030) signature, in contrast with the invaders indicating that the latter are generalists.\u00a0Significant isotopic niche overlap was observed among all benthic species. The degree of niche overlap of\u00a0M. bipartitus\u00a0was the highest (91.8%) with the\u00a0G. gobio.\u00a0Proterorhinus semilunaris had the highest degree of niche overlap (91.2%) with the (B. barbatula.\u00a0It was notable that the observed niche overlap between the native\u00a0B. barbatula\u00a0and\u00a0C. taenia was high (99.2%). Overlap between\u00a0M. bipartitus and\u00a0P. semilunaris was low (8.9% overlap), indicating little resource competition between these alien species. Native species showed wider isotopic niches than the invaders. Bayesian mixing models revealed that native and alien species slightly differ in their main diet.\u00a0The results suggest that the invaders are plastic in their resource use, leading to niche differentiation and promoting co-existence of benthic fish species.", "keywords": ["stable isotopes", "benthic fishes", "14.

Although rising atmospheric CO             2             has been proposed as the principal cause, the underlying physiological mechanisms are still being debated, and implications for the global water cycle remain uncertain. Here, we addressed this gap using 30-y tree ring records of carbon and oxygen isotope measurements and basal area increment from 12 species in 8 North American mature temperate forests. Our goal was to separate the contributions of enhanced photosynthesis and reduced stomatal conductance to WUE trends and to assess consistency between multiple commonly used methods for estimating WUE. Our results show that tree ring-derived estimates of increases in WUE are consistent with estimates from atmospheric measurements and predictions based on an optimal balancing of carbon gains and water costs, but are lower than those based on ecosystem-scale flux observations. Although both physiological mechanisms contributed to rising WUE, enhanced photosynthesis was widespread, while reductions in stomatal conductance were modest and restricted to species that experienced moisture limitations. This finding challenges the hypothesis that rising WUE in forests is primarily the result of widespread, CO             2             -induced reductions in stomatal conductance.           </p", "keywords": ["Water-use efficiency", "Tree rings", "Water", "AmeriFlux", "Biological Sciences", "Carbon Dioxide", "Forests", "15.

Results showed that the farm had four distinct attenuation areas: high N attenuation: characterised by ammonium-N (NH4+-N) below 0.23 mg NH4+-N l-1 and nitrate (NO3--N) below 5.65 mg NO3-- N l-1 in surface, drainage and groundwater, located on imperfectly to moderately-well drained soils with high denitrification potential and low nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions (av. 0.0032 mg N2O-N l-1); moderate N attenuation: characterised by low NO3--N concentration in drainage water but high N2O production (0.0317 mg N2O-N l-1) and denitrification potential lower than group 1 (av. \u03b415N-NO3-: 16.4 , av. \u03b418O-NO3-: 9.2 ), on well to moderately drained soils; low N attenuation area 1: characterised by high NO3--N (av. 6.90 mg NO3--N l-1) in drainage water from well to moderately-well drained soils, with low denitrification potential (av. \u03b415N-NO3-: 9.5 , av. \u03b418O-NO3-: 5.9 ) and high N2O emissions (0.0319 mg N2O l-1); and low N attenuation area 2: characterised by high NH4+-N (av. 3.93 mg NH4+-N l-1 and high N2O emissions (av. 0.0521 mg N2O l-1) from well to imperfectly drained soil. N loads on site should be moved away from low attenuation areas and emissions to air and water should be assessed.", "keywords": ["dairy systems", "Farms", "Time Factors", "550", "Nitrogen", "Science", "Nitrous Oxide", "management change", "Oxygen Isotopes", "01 natural sciences", "Permeability", "nitrogen", "dissimilatory nitrate reduction to ammonium", "soil", "Dairy system", "Soil", "Isotopes", "Waste Management", "Oxygen Radioisotopes", "Ammonium Compounds", "0105 earth and related environmental sciences", "2.

Gypsum crystallization water is a key source of water for shallow-rooted plants", "description": "AbstractBackground and Aims<p>Gypsum drylands are widespread worldwide. In these arid ecosystems, the ability of different species to access different water sources during drought is a key determining factor of the composition of plant communities. Gypsum crystallization water could be a relevant source of water for shallow-rooted plants, but the segregation in the use of this source of water among plants remains unexplored. We analysed the principal water sources used by 20 species living in a gypsum hilltop, the effect of rooting depth and gypsum affinity, and the interaction of the plants with the soil beneath them.</p>Methods<p>We characterized the water stable isotope composition, \uffce\uffb4\uffe2\uff80\uff8a2H and \uffce\uffb4\uffe2\uff80\uff8a18O, of plant xylem water and related it to the free and gypsum crystallization water extracted from different depths throughout the soil profile and the groundwater, in both spring and summer. Bayesian isotope mixing models were used to estimate the contribution of water sources to plant xylem sap.</p>Key Results<p>In spring, all species used free water from the top soil as the main source. In summer, there was segregation in water sources used by different species depending on their rooting depth, but not on their gypsum affinity. Gypsum crystallization water was the main source for most shallow-rooted species, whereas free water from 50 to 100 cm depth was the main source for deep-rooted species. We detected plant\uffe2\uff80\uff93soil interactions in spring, and indirect evidence of possible hydraulic lift by deep-rooted species in summer.</p>Conclusions<p>Plants coexisting in gypsum communities segregate their hydrological niches according to their rooting depth. Crystallization water of gypsum represents an unaccounted for, vital source for most of the shallow-rooted species growing on gypsum drylands. Thus, crystallization water helps shallow-rooted species to endure arid conditions, which eventually accounts for the maintenance of high biodiversity in these specialized ecosystems.</p", "keywords": ["0106 biological sciences", "Root depth", "Water stable isotopes", "Enraizamiento", "Oxygen Isotopes", "Calcium Sulfate", "Plant Roots", "01 natural sciences", "Drought", " gypsum crystallization water", "Soil", "Ecosystem", "Hlant community", "Water", "Bayes Theorem", "Yeso", "Original Articles", "04 agricultural and veterinary sciences", "15.
