DOI: 10.1016/j.foreco.2021.119251
Abstract: Abstract Increasing drought and changing temperatures drive researchers to seek more efficient and effective means to aid management of coniferous forests across the western United States. Thinning allows for effective removal of biomass, but with… read more here.

DOI: 10.1080/13416979.2018.1555882
Abstract: ABSTRACT We measured the productivity and morphological traits of fine roots in seven forests between 170 and 1550 m along an elevation gradient on Yakushima Island, Japan. Yakushima Island is continuously covered by forests ranging… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/treephys/tpad067
Abstract: Root exudation fulfills fundamental roles in regulating carbon (C)-nutrient cycling in forest ecosystems, yet the main ecological drivers of root exudation and underlying mechanisms in forests under natural gradients remain poorly understood. Here, we investigated… read more here.

DOI: 10.1139/cjfr-2017-0001
Abstract: Estimates of decomposition rates of coarse woody debris (CWD) and fluxes of nutrients therein are essential components of carbon (C) and nutrient budget models. In a 30-year field experiment, we periodically measured mass remaining and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0196927
Abstract: Natural forests in inland China are generally distributed in montane area and secondary due to a semi-arid climate and past anthropogenic disturbances. However, quantification of carbon (C) stock in these forests and the role of… read more here.

DOI: 10.5194/bg-16-1411-2019
Abstract: Abstract. Dissolved organic matter (DOM) is part of the biogeochemical cycles of carbon and nutrients, carries pollutants and drives soil formation. The DOM concentration and properties along the water flow path through forest ecosystems depend… read more here.
