This study models post-fire stream dissolved organic carbon (DOC) dynamics by incorporating fire-altered terrestrial carbon pools. Using the 2021 Schneider Springs Fire in Washington, the coupled ELM-BGC and ATS-PFLOTRAN models show an orde…

Yuming Jin, Eric J. Morgan, Britton B. Stephens +2

This study uses the Ocean Circulation Inverse Model (OCIM) to quantify coupling coefficients between ocean heat, oxygen, and carbon fluxes, providing an independent constraint on climate-driven CO2 fluxes. From 2005-2024 observations, the n…

This review examines case studies from East and West Africa on malaria surges following extreme climate events such as floods, droughts, and temperature fluctuations. It highlights correlations between climate variables and malaria incidenc…

Yanfen Yang, Ziwei Yang, Hairui Zhao +1

This study manipulates precipitation in Qinghai Lake lakeside wetland, measuring CO2, CH4, N2O fluxes. Results show that wetting and drying affect emissions differently depending on time of day and treatment intensity, with complex correlat…

This study investigates how viral top-down control (predation) alters microbial community composition and greenhouse gas (GHG) dynamics in paddy and maize soils. Viral infection shifts microbial profiles, leading to changes in GHG emissions…

Diyang Zou, Xiaoyan Song, Fumei Li +6

This study investigates the effects of precipitation and warming on greenhouse gas fluxes (CO2, CH4, N2O) in an alpine meadow. It finds that precipitation changes have a stronger influence than warming, and their effects are additive.

Qingqing Chen, Wanying Zhang, Yi Jiao +5

The paper investigates the combined effects of seabird guano deposition and freeze-thaw cycles on greenhouse gas (CO2, CH4, N2O) emissions from tundra soils in the High Arctic and maritime Antarctic. It contributes to understanding natural …

Yapeng Wang, Yongchun Zhou, Xiaoya Wang +3

This meta-analysis investigates the combined effects of microplastics (MPs) and biochar on soil greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. MPs increased CO2, CH4, N2O emissions and global warming potential, while biochar and combined treatments reduce…
