DOI: 10.1002/ece3.9572
Abstract: Abstract Many traits including trophic niche parameters are attributed to species. However, generalist species may vary in trophic niches with environments, making species‐based knowledge hard to extrapolate beyond local food webs. Here we tested trophic… read more here.

Influence of thawed soil depth on rainfall erosion of frozen bare meadow soil in the Qinghai–Tibet Plateau
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2021 at "Earth Surface Processes and Landforms"
DOI: 10.1002/esp.5138
Abstract: The Qinghai–Tibet Plateau has a vast area of approximately 70×104 km2 of alpine meadow under the impacts of soil freezing and thawing, thereby inducing intensive water erosion. Quantifying the rainfall erosion process of partially thawed soil… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10533-020-00721-3
Abstract: The knowledge of tree species dependent turnover of soil organic matter (SOM) is limited, yet required to understand the carbon sequestration function of forest soil. We combined investigations of 13C and 15N and its relationship… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.catena.2017.12.026
Abstract: Abstract Landform attributes derived from digital elevation models (DEMs) are the most commonly used factors to predict soil depths on hillslopes. However, the selection of an appropriate algorithm to calculate terrain attributes and identify an… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.catena.2018.06.038
Abstract: Abstract The soil is the largest carbon (C) pool in the terrestrial ecosystem, and soil organic carbon (SOC) stocks play an important role in global C dynamics. Alpine grasslands of the Andes are characterized by… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.gecco.2020.e01033
Abstract: Abstract Karst rocky outcrops divert water into the surrounding soil patches in a phenomenon known as the “funnel” effect. Soil depth is a key limiting factor in vegetation restoration in karst landscapes, yet few studies… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.geoderma.2016.11.006
Abstract: Abstract We know very little about microbial communities in deeper soil horizons, especially the microbial characteristics along soil depth profiles in paddy fields. In this study, we used a phospholipid fatty acid (PLFA) analysis to… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.geoderma.2019.05.010
Abstract: Abstract The activity and composition of soil microbial communities during natural restoration have been widely studied, but their succession rates and metabolic functions remain unknown, especially with respect to soil depth. Here, we examined a… read more here.
