Electron transfer reactions and their role in soil carbon cycling

Electron transfer reactions are central to the transformation of energy in the environment and play an important role in biogeochemical element cycling. In soils, one of the main drivers of carbon cycling is the activity of organisms that utilize the energ ...

Soil warming alters tree water use and canopy stomatal conductance in a mixed subtropical forest

Charlotte Grossiord, Christoph Bachofen

As air temperature and vapor pressure deficit (VPD) increase continuously, forests are losing more water through evapotranspiration, with large consequences for local and global hydrological cycles. In regions with high vegetation cover, soil warming can b ...

Disentangling the impact of co-varying drought-driven changes to soil moisture, vapor pressure deficit, and temperature on plant carbon and water relations.

Charlotte Grossiord

Recent decades have been characterized by increasing temperatures worldwide, resulting in an exponential climb in vapor pressure deficit (VPD). Heat and VPD have been identified as increasingly important drivers of plant functioning in terrestrial biomes a ...

Glacier retreat and increasing vegetation cover alter the sources and sinks of organic and inorganic carbon in alpine streams

Nicola Deluigi, Andrew Lean Robison

High-mountain ecosystems are experiencing acute effects of climate change, most visibly through glacier recession and the greening of the terrestrial environment. The streams draining these landscapes are affected by these shifts, integrating hydrologic, g ...

Spatially Explicit Linkages Between Redox Potential Cycles and Soil Moisture Fluctuations

Andrea Rinaldo, Rizlan Bernier-Latmani, Paolo Benettin, Manon Frutschi, Simiao Wang, Filippo Miele, Mitra Asadollahi

Reduction-oxidation cycles measured through soil redox potential (Eh) are associated with dynamic soil microbial activity. Understanding changes in the composition of, and resource use by, soil microbial communities requires Eh predictability under shiftin ...

Chronic warming and dry soils limit carbon uptake and growth despite a longer growing season in beech and oak

Charlotte Grossiord, Yann Vitasse, Margaux Clara Lou Didion-Gency

Progressively warmer and drier climatic conditions impact tree phenology and carbon cycling with large consequences for forest carbon balance. However, it remains unclear how individual impacts of warming and drier soils differ from their combined effects ...

Accounting for foliar gradients in Vc(max) and J(max) improves estimates of net CO2 exchange of forests

Christoph Bachofen

Vertical gradients in the canopy represent a major challenge for scaling from foliar photosynthesis to ecosystem-level CO2 fluxes. We tested whether accounting for independent gradients of carboxylation capacity (Vc(max)) and photosynthetic electron transp ...

Glacier loss and vegetation expansion alters organic and inorganic carbon dynamics in alpine streams

Tom Ian Battin, Nicola Deluigi, Andrew Lean Robison, Camille Aude Rolland

High-mountain ecosystems are experiencing acute effects of climate change, most visibly through glacier recession and the ‘greening’ of the terrestrial environment. The streams draining these landscapes are affected by these shifts, integrating hydrologic, ...

Photosynthetic acclimation and sensitivity to short- and long-term environmental changes in a drought-prone forest

Charlotte Grossiord

Future climate will be characterized by an increase in frequency and duration of drought and warming that exacerbates atmospheric evaporative demand. How trees acclimate to long-term soil moisture changes and whether these long-term changes alter trees' se ...

Improved framework to estimate travel time and derived distributions in hydrological control volumes

Mitra Asadollahi

Crossing properties of soil saturation, defined as the duration and excursion of soil saturation below and above certain thresholds, are key variables to ecosystem functioning and evolution by primarily influencing the plant and soil microbes physiological ...
