Nonetheless, it poses notable challenges concerning water depletion and soil drought in (semi)arid regions. The underlying mechanisms regulating the influence of afforestation on soil carbon-water dynamics, particularly how deep soil C reacts to afforestation-induced soil drying, remain largely unclear. This study examined the variations of soil water content (SWC), soil organic carbon (SOC), and soil inorganic carbon (SIC) in 500 cm depth along four afforestation stages: abandoned grasslands, shrublands, and 20-year and 40-year <i>Robinia pseudoacacia</i> forests (RP20 and RP40) in the semiarid Loess Plateau, China. The results indicated that afforestation has significantly increased SWC (+26.6%), SOC (+44.5%), and SIC (+6.5%) in the shallow layer (0–100 cm) but caused evident soil drying (−60.8%), decrease in SOC (−37.8%), and slight reduction in SIC (−0.3%) in the deep layer (300–500 cm) when compared with grasslands. The seriously decline in the coupling coordination between soil C and SWC in the middle and deep layers indicates the unsustainability of afforestation especially for RP40. Structural equation model showed that the negative impact of afforestation on deep SOC through soil water depletion (−0.38) outweighed the direct positive impact of increased aboveground biomass (AGB) (+0.33). The negative impacts of decreased SWC and increased pH on deep SIC was close to the positive impacts of AGB. Afforestation has different effects on SOC and SIC across shallow and deep layers, and its negative effects on deep soil C should be fully integrated into future forest ecosystem restoration and management efforts.</p>","PeriodicalId":16003,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Geophysical Research: Biogeosciences","volume":"129 11","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.7,"publicationDate":"2024-11-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142579780","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In addressing this challenge, this study proposed, for the first time, a method to precisely identify the validation pixels matching with in situ sites. Moreover, the accuracy of the TROPOMI SIF product was reevaluated with the improved geolocation match method between the satellite pixel and the corresponding in situ site. The results indicate that ignoring the geometric errors of TROPOMI pixels can result in a 49% probability of mismatch between the validation pixel and the in situ site. The errors caused by geolocation mismatch mainly come from two aspects. One is the incorrect extraction of the validation pixel, with a maximum error of 1.385 mWm⁻² sr⁻¹ nm⁻¹. The other is the pixel-scale reference “truth,” which resulted from the improper upscaling function of in situ measurements, and the maximum of this kind of error was 0.445 mWm⁻² sr⁻¹nm⁻¹.

OC burial is inherently multifactorial; however, in the past decade, the role of iron in regulating OC burial via the formation of organo-mineral associations, known as “rusty carbon sink,” has been extensively studied. Despite widespread recognition, the origin of the OC preserved within these associations and the effect of the bottom-water oxygenation on their stability are still debated. Here, we investigate the rusty carbon sink in sediments collected across transects from the head to mouth of three Swedish fjords presenting contrasting bottom-water oxygenation regimes (the oxic Hake fjord, seasonally hypoxic Gullmar fjord, and anoxic By fjord). We found that the oxygenation regimes, the intensity of benthic iron cycling or the OC origin have little to no influence on the amount of OC bound to Fe (OC – Fe). The lack of correlation with any of the parameters studied, in combination with an increase in the OC – Fe in the fjords with riverine input suggest, at least partially, an allochthonous origin of these organo-mineral associations. Our results also show that the rusty carbon sink plays a modest role in the OC burial in these fjords (∼6% OC is bound to Fe). While these fjords still represent important OC burial hotspots with an average of ∼35 g C m⁻² buried annually, the OC burial is controlled by other sedimentary processes, such as the high mass accumulation rates found in these fjord systems.</p>","PeriodicalId":16003,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Geophysical Research: Biogeosciences","volume":"129 11","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.7,"publicationDate":"2024-10-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1029/2024JG008277","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142561687","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Deep podzolized carbon (DPC), found in the United States Southeastern Coastal Plain, is situated well below the soil surface in horizons isolated from active plant input. This carbon is characterized by high C:N ratios (&gt;30) which could reflect nutrient limitation of microbial decomposition. To uncover the energy or nutrient limitation on DPC degradation, a 90-day priming experiment was performed with soils from the surface horizon and DPC horizons (i.e., Bh1 and Bh2) received the additions of ¹³C-labeled alanine and glucose. This resulted in prominent priming effects: addition of alanine increased basal decomposition of soil organic carbon by 918 ± 51% and 737 ± 7% in Bh2 and Bh1, respectively. Glucose relative priming was 505 ± 28% in Bh1 and 606 ± 77% of basal respiration in Bh2. These strong responses to substrate input highlight the susceptibility of DPC to loss when microbial carbon and nutrient constraints are alleviated. After 90 days, glucose addition increased the microbial biomass in DPC horizons relative to alanine addition, with the latter showing no difference from ultrapure-water control. The response of the microbial biomass indicates constraint by a lack of energy sources both by the paucity of labile substrates and reduced availability of organic matter as a result of podzolization. Our study has important implications for predicting the response of DPC in Coastal Plain soils in the context of land management and global change.</p>","PeriodicalId":16003,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Geophysical Research: Biogeosciences","volume":"129 11","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.7,"publicationDate":"2024-10-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142555482","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this study, we isolated different OC fractions, analyzed the basic parameters of the sediments, and compared the previous study's data to reveal how OC deposition responded to transformation. Our research indicates that transformation leads to the reduction of OC associated with minerals and sorting of OC occluded by plant debris and OC associated with minerals resulting in increased decomposition and mineralization of OC. The transformation affects the mechanism of OC binding with reactive iron (Fe_R), increasing Fe_R-protected OC content. Still, the co-precipitation mechanism and the intense redox environment in the mud deposit decrease the Fe_R-protected OC stability. Taken together, the impact of transformation is to increase the risk of OC decomposition and to weaken the OC preservation ability in RiOMars as carbon sinks.

The efficacy of different spectral bands and various radiometric indices (RIs) was tested using linear regression models for FD estimation. Furthermore, the study attempts to quantify the impacts of FD on vegetation's physiological processes (e.g., carbon uptake, transpiration, water use efficiency, leaf temperature) through proxy data sets. The key findings of the study uncovered sensor-specific and common trends in vegetation spectral profiles under varying FD concentrations. A saturation threshold was observed around 50 g/m² of FD concentration, beyond which additional FD concentration exhibited limited impact on spectral reflectance. On the other hand, the assessment of FD estimation models revealed distinct performances and shared trends across various satellite sensors. Notably, near-infrared and shortwave infrared-1 bands, along with certain RIs, such as the Global Environmental Monitoring Index and the Non-Linear Index, emerged as pivotal for accurate FD estimation. Besides, the study results revealed that vegetation-associated carbon uptake experienced a ∼2 to 3 gC reduction for every additional gram of FD per square meter. Moreover, the vegetation transpiration reduction per unit of FD ranged from approximately 0.0005 to 0.0006 mm/m²/day, highlighting a moderate impact on transpiration levels.
