DOI: 10.1007/s11629-018-5129-5

Abstract: The forest litter is an essential reservoir of nutrients in forests, supplying a large part of absorbable base cations (BC) to topsoil, and facilitating plant growth within litter-soil system. To characterize elevational patterns of base… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.catena.2019.104076

Abstract: Abstract Forest litter layer plays an important role in controlling water and soil loss; however, few studies have examined how litter cover affects hydrological processes. In this research, the effects of forest litter cover on… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/ele.14423

Abstract: Forest litter decomposition is an essential component of global carbon and nutrient turnover. Invertebrates play important roles in litter decomposition, but the regional pattern of their effects is poorly understood. We examined 476 case studies… read more here.

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0310088

Abstract: Following the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant accident in 2011, most of the released 137Cs remained in the litter and surface soil of the adjacent forest floor. However, 137Cs absorption by large soil invertebrates near… read more here.

Published in 2019 at "Frontiers in Plant Science"

DOI: 10.3389/fpls.2019.00581

Abstract: Phytolith-occluded carbon (PhytOC) can be preserved in soils or sediments for thousands of years and might be a promising potential mechanism for long-term terrestrial carbon (C) sequestration. As the principal pathway for the return of… read more here.
