This study examines the convergence of climate change relevant decisions and bounded livelihood choices of smallholder black pepper farmers in Kerala, India. It identifies factors influencing adaptive behavior and offers policy insights for…

Wang, Yu, 1964-, Haomiao Cheng, 康天放 +2

This study assesses trade-offs between carbon sequestration by vegetation and ozone air quality in China. It quantifies the air quality impacts of afforestation as a climate mitigation strategy, informing integrated policy decisions.

Wang A.

This study uses metagenomics to investigate how soil nutrients and microbial community structure affect greenhouse gas emissions in a giant rice-fish co-culture system. Findings suggest potential for emission reductions in this integrated f…

Xiao L.

This study reveals that an appropriate regime of irrigation and fertilization can suppress key ammonia-oxidizing archaeal and bacterial consortia in soil, thereby reducing greenhouse gas emissions. The findings provide a microbial-level und…

Lang M.

This study measured greenhouse gas (CO2, N2O, CH4) emissions from soils under different land use types (e.g., cropland, forest) in China and Canada at varying incubation temperatures. It found significant interactions between land use and t…

Zhang L.

This study investigates the regulatory effects of nitrogen fertilization on soil extracellular enzyme activity and greenhouse gas emissions in paddy fields with straw return. It finds that nitrogen application alters enzyme activities and i…
