Consequences of nutrient enrichment for soil organic matter cycling in grasslands
Human activities have increased the availability of nutrients, such as nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), and potassium (K), worldwide. Since alterations to nutrient cycles influence carbon (C) fixation and decomposition processes, nutrient enrichment affects global C stocks -- such as soil C. Carbon in …

Soil Influence on Forest Vegetation Productivity and Patterns in the Eastern Cascades of Southern Oregon
Soils influence vegetation and can critically affect forest restoration results. Areas with similar parent materials can have changes in soil and vegetation across a slope, aspect, slope position, microtopography, and elevation. The objective of this project was to assess what soil characteristics …

Measuring the temperature response of soil respiration from two distinct carbon pools in soil.
As soils contain a large store of terrestrial carbon, understanding the dynamics and stability of this important carbon reserve and how it may change with regards to future changes in temperature is of global interest. It is primarily understood that carbon exists in different pools within soil, …

Humus Dynamics along Forest Conversion Sequences in the Lowland and Ore Mountain Region of Saxony, Germany
Vor dem Hintergrund der steigenden CO2-Konzentration in der Atmosphäre gewinnt die Rolle des Waldes als C-Speicher zunehmend an Bedeutung. Eine besonders wichtige Funktion kommt hierbei dem Boden zu, denn Böden speichern weltweit mehr C als Vegetation und boden zusammen (Brady and Weil, 2002). Im …
