Rapidly restoring biological soil crusts and ecosystem functions in a severely disturbed desert ecosystem 来自 掌桥科研 喜欢 0 阅读量: 107 作者:Chiquoine,LP,Abella,SR,Bowker,MA 摘要: Restoring biological soil crusts (biocrusts) in degraded drylands can contribute to recovery of ecosystem functions ...
Forest Ecosystem Grassland Ecosystem Tundra Ecosystem Desert EcosystemForest EcosystemA forest ecosystem consists of several plants, particularly trees, animals and microorganisms that live in coordination with the abiotic factors of the environment. Forests help in maintaining the temperature of the earth ...
desertecosystemAs one of the most important biological factors that maintain the stability of the largest fixed and semi-fixed desert in China,the Gurbantunggut Desert,the biological soil crusts (BSCs) develop well and play critical ecological roles in the desert ecosystem. In this paper,we ...
related to denitrification, which, however, were always significantly richer in the rhizosphere of forest plants. In forest ecosystem, the significant rhizosphere effects on some functions related to C cycling, including methanol oxidation, ligninolysis, xylanolysis, methylotrophy, and cellulolysis, we...
While the contribution of biodiversity to supporting multiple ecosystem functions is well established in natural ecosystems, the relationship of the above- and below-ground diversity with ecosystem multifunctionality remains virtually unknown in urban greenspaces. Here we conducted a standardized survey of ...
Soil biota activity, which utilizes the organic matter for biosynthesis and maintenance at different levels of organization, has a considerable effect on arid regions. This activity is strongly affected by abiotic factors which are highly unstable in a desert ecosystem. In this erratic environment wher...
Comparison of root water uptake functions to simulate surface energy fluxes within a deep-rooted desert shrub ecosystem. Hydrol. Process. 2013, 28, 5436-5449. [CrossRef]Jing, C.Q.; Li, L.; Chen, X.; Luo, G.P. Comparison of root water uptake functions to simulate surface energy fluxes...

Soils support an immense portion of Earth’s biodiversity and maintain multiple ecosystem functions which are essential for human well-being. Environmental thresholds are known to govern global vegetation patterns, but it is still unknown whether they can be used to predict the distribution of soil ...
Soil stability, nitrogen and carbon fixation were assessed for eight biological soil crust community types within a Mojave Desert wilderness site. Cyanolichen crust outperformed all other crusts in multi-functionality whereas incipient crust had the poorest performance. A finely divided classification of ...
