Et Zucc. Seedlings", "description": "AbstractKey messageIn the open-field warming experiment using infrared heaters, 3\u00a0\u00b0C warming affected soil respiration more in the deciduousQuercus variabilisBlume plot than in the evergreenPinus densifloraSieb. et Zucc. plot, but did not affect the plant biomass in either species.ContextUnderstanding the species-specific responses of belowground carbon processes to warming is essential for the accurate prediction of forest carbon cycles in ecosystems affected by future climate change.AimsThis study aimed to investigate the effect of experimental warming on soil CO2 efflux, soil-air CO2 concentration, and plant biomass for two taxonomically different temperate tree species.MethodsExperimental warming was conducted in an open-field planted with Q. variabilis and P. densiflora seedlings. Infrared heaters increased the air temperature by 3\u00a0\u00b0C in the warmed plots compared with the air temperature in the control plots over a 2-year period.ResultsThe increase in air and soil temperature stimulated soil CO2 efflux by 29 and 22\u00a0% for the Q. variabilis and P. densiflora plots, respectively. Seasonal variation in the warming effect on soil CO2 efflux was species-specific. Soil CO2 efflux was also positively related to both soil temperature and soil water content. The soil moisture deficit decreased the difference in soil CO2 efflux between the control and warmed plots. Warming did not affect soil CO2 concentration and plant biomass in either species; however, the mean soil CO2 concentration was positively correlated with root and total biomass.ConclusionWarming increased soil CO2 efflux in both Q. variabilis and P. densiflora plots, while the increase showed remarkable seasonal variations and different magnitudes for the two species.", "keywords": ["0106 biological sciences", "soil temperature", "evergreen tree", "soil water", "Red pine", "seedling", "soil respiration", "01 natural sciences", "experimental study", "Pinus resinosa", "Climate change", "Pinus densiflora", "seasonal variation", "concentration (composition)", "Quercus variabilis", "Oriental oak", "carbon dioxide", "Soil respiration", "04 agricultural and veterinary sciences", "15.

The effect of soil type on aboveground OC stocks and their annual increases (AI) of overstorey tree, understorey tree and ground vegetation layers in Estonian forest phytocoenoses with mature stands on mineral soils were studied. The study enfolds nine mineral soil groups, which are characterized by their phytocoenoses composition, soil cover properties and tree stands\uffe2\uff80\uff99 taxation data. An assemblage of soil and plant cover or plant\uffe2\uff80\uff93soil system is the main focus point in explaining causal and quantitative sides of ecosystems functioning. Surface densities of OC stocks in aboveground phytomass of forests varied significantly in the range of 52\uffe2\uff80\uff93100 Mg OC ha\uffe2\uff88\uff921. High AI or productivity (4.8\uffe2\uff80\uff935.5 Mg OC ha\uffe2\uff88\uff921 year\uffe2\uff88\uff921) is a characteristic of forest ecosystems formed on leached, eluviated and pseudopodzolic soils. Forest ecosystem ground vegetation, which is an important ecological indicator, fulfils vacant ecological niches with herbs and/or mosses (up to 0.50 Mg OC ha\uffe2\uff88\uff921). The variation of ecosystem OC stocks and their AI by soil type should be taken into account in regional OC stocks and its annual increase estimations.</p>", "keywords": ["forest ecosystem; phytocoenosis; soil cover; organic carbon stock; phytomass; annual increase", "0401 agriculture", " forestry", " and fisheries", "04 agricultural and veterinary sciences", "15.
