DOI: 10.1002/lno.10718
Abstract: Non-seagrass sources account for ∼ 50% of the sediment organic carbon (SOC) in many seagrass beds, a fraction that may derive from external organic matter (OM) advected into the meadow and trapped by the seagrass… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s12237-020-00868-0
Abstract: Grazing by all members of an herbivore community can act to structure the ecosystems they feed on. The outcome of this grazing pressure on the plant community also depends on the interaction between different herbivore… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.agrformet.2019.107854
Abstract: Abstract Wetlands are predicted to experience lowered water tables due to permafrost degradation in the Tibetan Plateau. These changes may affect carbon cycle processes such as soil respiration (Rs). However, the magnitude, patterns and controls… read more here.
