This study surveyed 11 karst reservoirs in the Wujiang River Basin to analyze how dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC) dynamics and phytoplankton community succession affect the biological carbon pump (BCP). Reservoirs dominated by nondiatoms s…

This study examines five salt-affected soils on the Qiangtang Plateau, revealing that carbonate-rich soda soils store high carbon but mostly in labile forms, with no significant relationship to enzyme activity. Carbon storage and microbial …

Weibing Sun, Jia Liu, Bin Fu +6

This paper proposes a forward trajectory framework to trace carbon transport in the atmosphere, aiming to support regional environmental governance. By visualizing wind-driven carbon movement, it clarifies links between emission sources and…

Based on a 24-year grazing experiment, this study proposes a 'Soil-Plant-Livestock Carbon Pump' framework to explain grazing effects on carbon cycling. Although grazing intensity reduces aboveground biomass and litter carbon, it positively …

This study analyzes aboveground biomass (AGB) dynamics in Brazil's Atlantic Forest montane rainforest using 10-year monitoring data. It finds that communities with more conservative species traits show higher AGB increases, with environment…

Himmelberger, Anthony, Omara, Mark, Knapp, Marvin +9

Using MethaneSAT data, this study quantifies methane emissions from Algeria's three major production basins, finding total emissions of 85 t/h and gas-normalized intensity of 1.5%, far exceeding the 0.2% benchmark of the Oil and Gas Decarbo…

Qi Lu, Ke Lei, Xiaolong Zhang +6

This study projects the future distribution of apple Marssonina blotch (AMB) in China's Loess Plateau using an ensemble of eight species distribution models. Under SSP scenarios, high-suitability habitats are projected to decline by 67-86% …

Tingyuan Jin, Chaohui Zhong, Jiahao Chen +4

This study reports a global 'greening paradox' where increased forest greenness is associated with higher climate change risks. It suggests that vegetation increase does not necessarily imply ecosystem health or stable carbon sinks, prompti…

Afforestation's climate mitigation is context-dependent and not uniformly cooling. This integrative review synthesizes biophysical, hydrological, disturbance, and socioeconomic evidence, highlighting regional potentials and limits. It ident…

This study examines the nexus among carbon emissions, energy consumption, and economic growth in Nigeria using ARDL cointegration on time series data from 1981-2023. Results show carbon emissions negatively affect GDP, energy consumption is…

Yuhan Wang, Simon M. Mudd, Giovanni Coco +6

This study shows that tidal marsh carbon sinks can functionally collapse before physical retreat. Using field data from Jiangsu coast and modeling, it reveals that fringing effects cause a shift to carbon source, with a lag of months to a d…

This paper evaluates the impact of global wetland rewetting on greenhouse gas emissions, demonstrating its effectiveness as a climate mitigation strategy. It highlights the potential of wetland restoration to reduce methane and CO2 emission…

Hailing Li, Maohong Wei, Hongling Yang +7

This study compares how ecosystem water use efficiency (WUE) responds to environmental drivers in arid versus humid regions, revealing that dominant controls differ by region. The findings have implications for ecosystem management and unde…
