P-COV-20-18

Dataset of research project's ''Lithuanian businesses financial resistance to economic COVID-19 shock and different economic activities losses evaluation'' (LIFA) (No. P-COV-20-18) (funded by Research Council of Lithuania) is presented in full in these annexes. The research project ''Lithuanian businesses financial resistance to economic COVID-19 shock and different economic activities losses evaluation'' is designed to assess the change in the set of financial indicators of selected companies of different economic activities of the country (according to NACE2) related to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and the probable net damage (additional benefits and losses). Evaluation has two significant components: financial and economic. The evaluation was carried out from the first quarter of 2005 to second quarter of 2020 based on data collected from different databases (Statistics Departments, Bloomberg, European Commission, World Bank, etc.). The assessment of financial resilience and economic net damage modeled the baseline situation, which would have taken into account the macroeconomic indicators “without the impact of COVID-19” (baseline situation) in each of the sectors concerned, and compared it with the actual situation (Q1 and Q2 2020) indicators in order to determine the net effect. All input data, calculated indicators, and output data are provided in separate files (see annexes).

Soil carbon, nitrogen, and phosphorus cycling microbial populations and their resistance to global change depend on C:N:P stoichiometry

Maintaining the stability of ecosystem functions to global change calls for a better understanding the regulatory factors of functionally specialized microbial-groups and their population-response to disturbance. Here, we explored this issue by collecting soils from 54 managed ecosystems in China and building a predictive model of microcosm experiments. Soil carbon:nitrogen:phosphorus (C:N:P) stoichiometry (35%~49%) imparted a greater individual effects on the abundances of microbial-groups associated with main carbon C, N, and P biogeochemical processes in comparison with geographical conditions (7%~10%). Soil total C and N contents were significantly positively correlated with the abundances of diazotrophs (nifH), nitrifiers (bacterial amoA), nitrate reducers (narG) and denitrifiers (nirS/K and nosZ genes). Soil C:N ratio not only exhibited a negative relationship with the abundances of P activators (phoD, phoC and pqqC genes), but also with cellulolytic decomposers (fungcbhIR and GH74 genes). Nitrogen cycling genes, including bacterial amoA, nirS, narG and norB, exhibited higher genetic resistance to N deposition compared with the drying-wetting cycles and warming. Soil total C, N and P contents, and their ratios had a strong direct effect on the genetic resistance of microbial-groups. Soil C:P ratio was selected by random forest analyses as the main predictor of N cycling genetic resistance to N deposition. Soil total C and N contents, and their ratios were the main predictors of the P cycling genetic resistance to three global change drivers. Overall, our work highlights the importance of soil stoichiometric balance for maintaining the ability of microbially-driven ecosystem functions to withstand global change.

Data from: Saprotrophic and ectomycorrhizal fungal sporocarp stoichiometry (C : N : P) across temperate rainforests as evidence of shared nutrient constraints among symbionts

Summary: Quantifying nutritional dynamics of free-living saprotrophs and symbiotic ectomycorrhizal fungi (EMF) in the field is challenging, but the stoichiometry of fruiting bodies (sporocarps) may be an effective methodology for this purpose. Carbon (C), nitrogen (N), and phosphorus (P) concentrations of soils, foliage and 146 sporocarp collections were analyzed from 14 Pseudotsuga menziesii var. menziesii stands across a podzolization gradient on Vancouver Island (Canada). N and P concentrations were considerably higher in saprotrophic fungi. Fungal N% increased with soil N content at a greater rate for saprotrophs than EMF, while fungal P% of saprotrophs was more constrained. Fungal N:P was more responsive to soil N:P for EMF (homeostatic regulation coefficient 'H' =2.9) than saprotrophs (H= 5.9), while N:P of EMF and host tree foliage scaled almost identically. Results underscore the role of EMF as nutrient conduits, supporting host trees, whereas saprotrophs maintain a greater degree of nutritional homeostasis. Site nutrient constraints were shared in equal measure between EMF and host trees, particularly for P, suggesting neither partner benefits from enhanced nutrition at the expense of the other. Sporocarp stoichiometry provides new insights into mycorrhizal relationships and illustrates pervasive P deficiencies across temperate rainforests of the Pacific Northwest.

Data from: Experimental N and P additions alter stream macroinvertebrate community composition via taxon‐level responses to shifts in detrital resource stoichiometry

1. Increases in nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) availability are changing animal communities, partly by altering stoichiometric imbalances between consumers and their food. Testing relationships between resource stoichiometry and consumer assemblage structure requires ecosystem-level manipulations that have been lacking to date. 2. We analyzed patterns of macroinvertebrate community composition in five detritus-based headwater streams subject to experimental whole-stream N and P additions that spanned a steep gradient in dissolved N:P ratio (2:1, 8:1, 16:1, 32:1, 128:1) over two years, following a one-year pre-treatment period. 3. We predicted that shifts in leaf litter stoichiometry would drive overall patterns of community composition via greater responses of shredders to enrichment than other taxa, as shredders dominate primary consumer biomass and experience larger consumer-resource elemental imbalances than other functional groups in stream ecosystems. Specifically, we expected litter C:P to be a significant predictor of shredder biomass given the greater relative imbalances between shredder and litter C:P than C:N. Finally, we tested whether shredder responses to enrichment were related to other taxon-level traits, including body size and stoichiometry, larval lifespan and growth rate. 4. Whole-community composition shifted similarly across the five streams after enrichment, largely driven by increased shredder and predator biomass. These shifts were limited to the autumn/winter seasons and related to decreased leaf litter C:P, highlighting important links between the quality of seasonal litter subsidies and community phenology. 5. Among 10 taxa that drove structural shifts, two declined while other taxa from the same functional/taxonomic groups responded positively, suggesting that specific life-history traits may determine sensitivity to enrichment. 6. Increases in total shredder biomass, and in biomass of several common shredders, were associated with lower litter C:P. Body C:P did not predict shredder response to enrichment. However, weak negative relationships between shredder response and body size, and larval lifespan, suggest that small-bodied and short-lived taxa may be more responsive to shifting resource stoichiometry. 7. Moderate anthropogenic increases in N and P availability affect resource stoichiometry and can alter animal communities, influencing additional food-web and ecosystem properties. We provide support for ecological stoichiometry as a framework for predicting such outcomes based on changes in the elemental composition of resource pools.
