Increasing tree species diversity is known to enhance soil organic carbon (SOC) stocks, but its effect on SOC stability remains a critical uncertainty for climate mitigation. Through examination of a subtropical karst forest diversity gradient in southwest China, we reveal a fundamental shift in SOC stabilization mechanisms using physical fractionation, 13C nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy

Straw addition is a widely used agricultural practice to maintain soil fertility. However, its effects on soil organic carbon (SOC) and nutrient cycling are complex, with outcomes ranging from inhibition to stimulation of SOC mineralization via the priming effect. Freeze-thaw cycles are common disturbances in agroecosystems of high-altitude regions that are predicted to increase in frequency and s

Anthropogenic elevated atmospheric carbon dioxide (eCO2) increases carbon (C) availability to plants. Whether ecosystems store or release this additional C depends on the balance between net primary production (NPP) and soil respiration, where eCO2-stimulated NPP can be constrained by the provisioning of nutrients by microbial decomposers. Ecosystems gradually become more phosphorus (P)-limited as

Accurate accounting of greenhouse-gas (GHG) emissions and removals is central to tracking progress toward climate mitigation and for monitoring potential climate-change feedbacks. GHG budgeting and reporting can follow either the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change methodologies for National Greenhouse Gas Inventory (NGHGI) reporting or use atmospheric-based “top-down” (TD) inversions or pro

Boreal rivers and streams are significant sources of carbon dioxide (CO2) and methane (CH4) for the atmosphere. Yet the controls and the magnitude of these emissions remain highly uncertain, as current estimates are mostly based on indirect and discrete flux measurements. In this study, we present and analyse the longest CO2 and the first ever CH4 flux dataset measured by the eddy covariance (EC)

The ecosystem response to disturbances is a central topic in ecology, and there is growing awareness of the impacts of human-driven climate change on ecosystem stability to disturbances. Terrestrial ecosystems are increasingly exposed to more drought and rainfall events as climate change intensifies. In soils, bacteria and fungi play a key role in ecosystem functioning, yet their responses to drou

The water level-area-storage volume (Z-A-V) relationship serves as the cornerstone of reservoir operations, governing water allocation, flood mitigation, and power generation. Sedimentation-induced capacity alterations can progressively degrade Z-A-V accuracy, yet systematic curve updates remain inadequately implemented across developing nations. Traditional reconstruction approaches face inherent

Forest loss, fragmentation, and transformation negatively impact forest biodiversity and ecosystem functionality worldwide. Improving landscape intactness and connectivity through restoration is critical. Determining where to restore remains, however, a challenge. As an approach for prioritizing restoration areas, we define connectivity forest (CFs) as forests outside recognized high conservation

Accurate evapotranspiration (ET) estimation is vital for hydrological modeling, yet remotely sensed ET (RS-ET) products are often limited by algorithmic uncertainties and sensor biases. To mitigate error propagation and better capture spatial patterns, this study introduces the Composite Efficiency of Absolute ET and Spatial Autocorrelation (CEASA) —a dual-constraint framework that integrates abso

Understanding vegetation sensitivity to hydroclimate factors, especially how carbon and water cycles respond to climate change, is crucial for assessing ecosystem vulnerability. However, the seasonal sensitivity of carbon and water fluxes to temperature, radiation, soil water content, and vapor pressure deficit across diverse biomes and climates remains unclear. Here, we use 196 eddy covariance ob

Disturbances play a key role in forest dynamics globally, with various effects on productivity. Tree diversity is expected to attenuate the negative impact of disturbance on forest productivity, but its overall effect has been little explored and might depend on the functional composition. Here, we analysed whether forest productivity responses to disturbances were modulated by structural and func

Polyploidization is an important driver of evolution and diversification in flowering plants. Here, we assess how repeated polyploidization may have shaped diversification of floral morphology in Lithophragma bolanderi (Saxifragaceae). This species comprises multiple cytotypes and varies geographically in its interactions with specialized pollinating moths in the genus Greya (Prodoxidae). Past stu

This editorial introduces the special feature’s main objective: to provide latest research findings on the dynamics between environmental protection and post-conflict peacebuilding processes after internal armed conflicts. In the feature, we propose a broad understanding of environmental peacebuilding that takes all cycles of the peacebuilding process into account and puts stronger emphasis on the

Resilience is a critical issue for water resource systems. Over the past few decades, these systems have been significantly disrupted by natural disasters and human activities, resulting in substantial economic losses. This study develops a resilience evaluation framework based on a comprehensive literature review and applies it to assess the resilience of the Yangtze River Basin (YRB). The result
