Soil Carbon Pools in California’s Annual Grassland Ecosystems
Rangeland ecosystems cover approximately one-third of the land area in the United States and half of the land area of California. This large land area, coupled with the propensity of grasses to allocate a considerable proportion of their photosynthate belowground, leads to high soil carbon (C) sequestration potential. Annual grasslands typical of the Mediterranean climates of the western United...

ویژگی های زمین شیمیایی، کانی شناسی، و میکرومورفولوژیکی خاک ها و سنگ مادر مربوطه در منطقه بین بخش های جنوبی زاگرس و خلیج فارس تا دریای عمان(استان هرمزگان، ایران) مورد بررسی قرار گرفت. هدف های این مطالعه شناسایی تغییرات در خصوصیات فیزیکی، شیمیایی، و ترکیب کانی شناسی خاک، مطالعه میکرومورفولوژی و تکامل خاک، و بررسی توزیع عنصر خاک بر اساس هوازدگی، پروسه های خاک و زمین شناسی جهت توصیف اثرات مواد مادر...
15 صفحه اولContrasting bacterial communities in two indigenous Chionochloa (Poaceae) grassland soils in New Zealand
The cultivation of grasslands can modify both bacterial community structure and impact on nutrient cycling as well as the productivity and diversity of plant communities. In this study, two pristine New Zealand grassland sites dominated by indigenous tall tussocks (Chionochloa pallens or C. teretifolia) were examined to investigate the extent and predictability of variation of the bacterial com...
متن کاملModeled ecosystem responses to intra-annual redistribution and levels of precipitation in a prairie grassland
Global models projected that, precipitation in Great Plains of the United States will decrease in summer and increase in spring and winter. However, few studies had carefully examined ecosystem responses to this intra-annual redistribution of precipitation. Here we used a process-based model, Terrestrial ECOsystem (TECO) Model, to evaluate responses of ecosystem carbon processes (including net ...
