drought and diversity loss is scarce. Microbial carbon use efficiency (CUE) plays a central role in regulating the flow of carbon through soil, yet how biotic and abiotic factors interact to drive it remains unclear. Here, we combine distinct community inocula (a biotic factor) with different...
Carbon use efficiency (CUE), one of the most important eco-physiological parameters, represents the capacity of plants to transform carbon into new biomass. Understanding the variations and controls of CUE is crucial for regional carbon assessment. Here, we used 15-years of continuous remote sensing...
Responses of annual carbon use efficiency (CUE; i.e., the ratio of net primary production to gross primary production) to annual temperature, precipitation, vapor pressure, relative humidity, and sunshine were examined from 2000 to 2012 on the Tibetan Plateau. The response magnitudes of CUE to ...
Microbial carbon use efficiency (CUE) affects the soil C cycle to a great extent, but how soil organisms and the abiotic environment combine to influence CUE at a regional scale remains poorly understood. In the current study, microcosms were used to investigate how microbial respiration, biomass...
The objective of the present study is to assess the extent to which the model can provide RUE for net carbon accumulation and carbon-use efficiency (CUE; the ratio of daily net carbon accumulation and gross photosynthesis) for a range of incident irradiance and leaf area indices of maize, ...
Affiliation Empirical evidence for the response of soil carbon cycling to the combined effects of warming, drought and diversity loss is scarce. Microbial carbon use efficiency (CUE) plays a central role in regulating the flow of carbon through soil, yet how biotic and abiotic factors interact to...
Microbial carbon use efficiency (CUE) is a critical regulator of soil organic matter dynamics and terrestrial carbon fluxes, with strong implications for s
We hypothesized that coastal inundation would negatively affect C storage by lowering plant C inputs and by placing greater osmotic stress on the microbial community leading to a reduced C use efficiency (CUE). Here, we use a coastal grassland ecosystem, which is becoming increasingly subjected to...
p>The carbon use efficiency (CUE) of microbial communities partitions the flow of C from primary producers to the atmosphere, decomposer food webs, and soil C stores. CUE, usually defined as the ratio of growth to assimilation, is a critical parameter in ecosystem models, but is seldom measur...
use efficiency (CUE) for over 200 species using genome-specific constraint-based metabolic modeling. We find that potential CUE averages 0.62 ± 0.17 with a range of 0.22 to 0.98 across taxa and phylogenetic structuring at the subphylum levels. Potential CUE is negatively correlated with ...
