Soil water vapor adsorption (SVA) occurs when the atmospheric water vapor pressure is greater than the soil air vapor pressure, which triggers the transport of water vapor from the atmosphere to the soil and its retention on the soil particle surface in liquid form. This process is largely caused by soil hydraulic properties and may play a significant role in dryland hydrology, yet remains understudied due to a lack of continuous, direct observations. In this study, we use globally distributed eddy covariance flux tower data to detect and characterize patterns of soil water vapor adsorption. We verify the consistency between negative latent heat fluxes as an indicator of water vapor movement toward the ground and the theoretical understanding of SVA. Our results reveal a relationship between the direction of the vapor gradient, as indicated by the direction of the latent heat flux, soil moisture, and near-surface relative humidity, which is consistent with the understanding of a phase equilibrium at the pore scale of the soil. Distinguishing between random noise and physically explainable occurrences of negative latent heat fluxes enables the characterization of SVA occurrence in eddy covariance observations. SVA is detected most frequent in arid and semi-arid regions, particularly in ecosystems with sparse vegetation such as savannas and dry shrublands. On average, SVA occurs for 4 ± 1.1 h per night, and may last up to 7 h in some locations. In certain sites, SVA occurs on more than 150 nights per year. These findings suggest that the eddy covariance method can help monitor SVA occurrence. Mapping the spatiotemporal patterns of SVA enhances our understanding of dryland land–atmosphere water fluxes and uncovers a previously overlooked component of the terrestrial water cycle.</p>","PeriodicalId":175,"journal":{"name":"Global Change Biology","volume":"31 10","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":12.0,"publicationDate":"2025-10-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/gcb.70547","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145277389","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"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}

Here, we map terrestrial climate-resilient sites for biodiversity across Brazil to identify sites with greater chances of providing suitable conditions for species to persist under regional climate change. Our mapping combines spatial metrics based on landscape heterogeneity, a proxy for microclimatic variability, and local connectedness, a measure of connectivity between habitats, to determine landscape resilience, assuming that resilience to climate change will be greater the more heterogeneous the characteristics of local habitats are and the more connected they are in the landscape. Our results show that within each biome, medium to high resilient sites are mostly found in the Amazon (40% of the biome) and Pantanal (38%). Low resilience, conversely, is concentrated in the Atlantic Forest (41% of the biome), followed by Cerrado (37%), Pampa (36%), and Caatinga (34%). Landscape resilience information has the potential to be used to effectively guide decision-making and public policy on strategies for conservation, restoration, and sustainable use practices. Priority for conservation should be on high resilience sites as they have the potential to sustain biodiversity in face of undergoing and future climate change. Other approaches could be used in situations of medium to low resilience also, such as: conservation of current corridors in sites with high local connectedness, but low landscape heterogeneity; restoration of natural vegetation on sites that show high landscape heterogeneity, but low local connectedness; and sustainable practices in areas of low resilience.

The article showed that ratios of log-transformed enzyme activities are unit-dependent and tend to converge toward 1, falsely suggesting a global C:N:P 1:1:1 pattern—a signal previously reported and widely interpreted as biological (Sinsabaugh et al. &lt;span&gt;2008&lt;/span&gt;, &lt;span&gt;2009&lt;/span&gt;), but arising here from mathematics rather than biology. The remedy is to compute direct ratios from raw activities (or vector metrics from raw shares), or to apply logs only after forming the ratio. This removes the mathematical artifact. By itself, however, it neither validates any threshold nor ensures that enzyme stoichiometry diagnoses nutrient limitation. On this broader point, I largely agree with Mori (&lt;span&gt;2025&lt;/span&gt;).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The broader debate over the usefulness of enzyme stoichiometry ratios is valuable. Several studies have raised critiques of inferring nutrient limitation from these ratios (e.g., Rosinger et al. &lt;span&gt;2019&lt;/span&gt;; Mori et al. &lt;span&gt;2023&lt;/span&gt;), while others report support under specific designs—particularly when ratios are interpreted temporally (weeks-scale integration) and corroborated with independent evidence (Moorhead et al. &lt;span&gt;2023&lt;/span&gt;; Kunito et al. &lt;span&gt;2024&lt;/span&gt;). As noted by Mori (&lt;span&gt;2025&lt;/span&gt;), ecoenzymatic theory still lacks comprehensive validation, and multiple arguments (e.g., terminal-step control, multiple enzymes per nutrient, lack of uniform responses to nutrient additions) urge caution.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;\u0000 &lt;b&gt;Why enzyme ratios still matter—and why fixing the math is important?&lt;/b&gt;\u0000 &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Measured activities are highly sensitive to assay conditions—substrate identity and concentration, pH, ionic strength, temperature, dilution, incubation time—yielding substantial between-lab and protocol variance for the same nominal enzyme (Nannipieri et al. &lt;span&gt;2018&lt;/span&gt;; Greenfield et al. &lt;span&gt;2021&lt;/span&gt;). When multiple enzymes are assayed under the same conditions within a study, many multiplicative scale factors act jointly; expressing activity as ratios (proportions)—i.e., ecoenzymatic ratios—helps cancel shared effects and improves within-study comparability, analogous to housekeeping-gene normalization in omics or intensity scaling in spectroscopy. Very extreme, distribution-incoherent ratios can also flag potential assay inconsistencies.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Ecoenzymatic ratios index extracellular enzyme production as an investment in acquiring specific substrates, which can decouple from instantaneous nutrient limitation under stress or constraint.

However, this discussion gives the misleading impression that, if the thresholds are calculated without log-transformation, they would function accurately. In reality, the more fundamental issue lies in the validity of calculating thresholds based on enzyme data itself. Here, I first address the conceptual issues associated with calculating thresholds from regressions of enzyme activity data—even when the log-transformation problem is resolved. Furthermore, while Puissant (&lt;span&gt;2025&lt;/span&gt;) suggests that addressing this issue would enable enzyme ratio calculations or vector analyses to serve as indicators of microbial nutrient limitation, I respectfully disagree with this conclusion. This is because multiple studies have shown that enzyme stoichiometry fails to reliably reflect nutrient limitation, and importantly, the enzyme stoichiometry framework has never been empirically validated.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Thresholds for carbon (C), nitrogen (N), and phosphorus (P) limitations were calculated using regression analyses of enzyme activity data measured under natural conditions. These analyses included: β-1,4-glucosidase (BG) versus N-acetylglucosaminidase (NAG) for C versus N limitation; BG versus acid or alkaline phosphatase (i.e., phosphomonoesterase, AP) for C versus P limitation; and NAG versus AP for N versus P limitation (Sinsabaugh et al. &lt;span&gt;2009&lt;/span&gt;). This approach assumes that the enzyme activities used to establish the thresholds represent either conditions of no nutrient limitation or equal limitation by all nutrients. Based on this assumption, deviations from these thresholds can be interpreted as indicators of C, N, or P limitation. However, this assumption lacks theoretical justification (Mori et al. &lt;span&gt;2023&lt;/span&gt;; Cui et al. &lt;span&gt;2024&lt;/span&gt;). Why should natural conditions be free from nutrient limitation? In fact, ecological understanding suggests that microbial activity is often constrained by one or more limiting nutrients (Kaspari et al. &lt;span&gt;2008&lt;/span&gt;). Furthermore, this underlying assumption—that typical or average natural conditions are nutrient-unlimited—is directly contradicted by how the thresholds are applied thereafter. In the application phase, the same type of enzyme data is used to test for nutrient limitations, based on the assumption that a specific nutrient is limiting. Consequently, the construction and application of the thresholds rest on fundamentally contradictory assumptions, leading to a methodological inconsistency.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Puissant (&lt;span&gt;2025&lt;/span&gt;) suggested that enzymatic stoichiometry and vector analysis remain valid methods, provided that enzyme activity ratios are calculated without prior log transformation. However, I respectfully disagree with this conclusion. It is important to underscore that both ap","PeriodicalId":175,"journal":{"name":"Global Change Biology","volume":"31 10","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":12.0,"publicationDate":"2025-10-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/gcb.70519","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145260780","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"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}

To determine how the combined effects of warming and drought impact the decomposition of fungal necromass, a large and fast-cycling portion of the global soil organic carbon (C) pool, we incubated <i>Hyaloscypha bicolor</i> necromass under both ambient and altered conditions (+3.3°C air and soil warming and ~40% reduced rainfall) at the B4Warmed experiment in Minnesota, USA. We conducted two multi-week incubations, one assessing mass loss and microbial community composition on decaying necromass after 1, 2, 7, and 14 weeks and the second characterizing the substrate utilization capacities of necromass-associated microbial communities after Weeks 1 and 7. Warming and reduced rainfall accelerated the initial rate of necromass decay by ~20%, yet slowed overall mass loss by ~6% at the end of the 14-week incubation. These different rates of decay over time paralleled shifting abiotic conditions, with altered plots experiencing warmer and relatively moist conditions early, but hotter and drier conditions later. The microbial community composition also varied by treatment and time, with warming and reduced rainfall stimulating fast-growing fungi as well as fungal relative to bacterial growth overall. Additionally, the functional capacity of the microbial community also changed over time, having a higher metabolic capability to utilize C and N substrates in the altered plots early in decomposition but a lower capability later in decay. Collectively, our findings highlight a dynamic, stage-dependent response of fungal necromass decomposition to altered climate regimes. By linking these decay dynamics to shifts in environmental conditions as well as microbial community composition and function, our study highlights the critical roles of both abiotic and biotic changes in mediating decomposition responses to climate change.</p>","PeriodicalId":175,"journal":{"name":"Global Change Biology","volume":"31 10","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":12.0,"publicationDate":"2025-10-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/gcb.70536","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145246665","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"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}
