Model Simulations of The Effects of Shifts in High-frequency Weather Variability (No Long-term Weather Trend) Control Carbon Loss from Land to the Atmosphere, Toolik Lake, Alaska, 2022-2122
Climate change is increasing extreme weather events, but effects on high-frequency weather variability and the resultant impacts on ecosystem function are poorly understood. We assessed ecosystem responses of arctic tundra to changes in day-to-day weather variability using a biogeochemical model and stochastic simulations of daily temperature, precipitation, and light. Changes in weather variability altered ecosystem carbon, nitrogen, and phosphorus stocks and cycling rates. Some responses of processes (e.g., respiration) were inconsistent with expectations, indicating that whole-ecosystem interactions and feedbacks moderate or even reverse responses to weather variability. More weather variability led to greater carbon losses from land to atmosphere, and less variability led to higher carbon sequestration on land. The magnitude of response to weather variability was similar to that predicted from climate mean trend effects. This dataset consists of the MEL parameter file, driver files and output files for simulations without a long term weather trend.

Map of soil organic carbon loss of mineral soils in Estonia
<p>The internal EJP SOIL project SERENA contributed to the evaluation of soil multifunctionality aiming at providing assessment tools for land planning and soil policies at different scales. By co-working with relevant stakeholders, the project provided co-developed indicators and associated cookbooks to assess and map them, to report both on soil degradation, soil-based ecosystem services and their bundles, under actual conditions and for climate and land-use changes, at the regional, national, and European scales.</p> <p>The map was generated to evaluate soil organic carbon (SOC) loss in Estonian agricultural soils. It is directly related to SERENA project WP3, T3.2, D3.3 with the aim of applying cookbooks to assess soil threats or ecosystem services. This map is the outcome of applying a cookbook developed by ISRIC (Genova, G., Poggio, L., Kempen, B., & Colman, B. DSM Workflow Seedling. ISRIC - World Soil Information. https://doi.org/10.17027/ISRIC-FSX2-2691).</p> <p>The generated map of SOC loss expressed as absolute sequestration rate (t C ha-1 a-1) between 2015 and 2021 is in GEOTIFF format at the resolution of 100m. The input data for the cookbook was from the PANDA database, which contains regular soil monitoring and voluntary soil sampling data by farmers in Estonia. To achieve the aim for accounting SOC loss in agricultural soils temporal pairs were selected resulting in 1037 paired points where the interval between second sampling was more than 5 years. SOC stocks were calculated for the depth of 20 cm using the equation by Adams (1973) to calculate soil bulk density. The calculated SOC stock for time0 and time2 (> 5 years resampled locations) were used as input points for digital soil mapping, that is the ISRIC cookbook. </p>
EJPSOIL_SERENA: Maps of Soil Organic Carbon Loss Scenarios in Elva Parish, Estonia
<p>The internal EJP SOIL project SERENA contributed to the evaluation of soil multifunctionality aiming at providing assessment tools for land planning and soil policies at different scales. By co-working with relevant stakeholders, the project provided co-developed indicators and associated cookbooks to assess and map them, to report both on soil degradation, soil-based ecosystem services and their bundles, under actual conditions and for climate and land-use changes, at the regional, national, and European scales. </p> <p>The study examined the effects of winter cropping systems on long-term soil fertility and their potential to mitigate SOC (Soil Organic Carbon) loss compared to bare soil during the winter months. It analyzed changes in SOC stocks (0–30 cm) at the field level in Elva Parish over the period 2020–2040, under different land-use scenarios. The modeling was based on a SOC stock map layer for Estonian mineral arable soils, developed by the Centre of Estonian Rural Research and Knowledge, which represented the baseline conditions in 2020. SOC stock projections were made using the RothC model, which simulates soil carbon turnover. </p> <p>In the first scenario (Scenario 1), the average SOC stock in Elva Parish by 2040 was estimated assuming the land would remain bare, without vegetation, during the winter months from October to April. In the second scenario (Scenario 2), the SOC stock projection accounted for the presence of winter vegetation, which means the soil is covered with vegetation year-round. The dataset includes four files: a projected SOC stock map for Elva Parish in 2040 and the stock changes from 2020–2040 under Scenario 1, along with a projected SOC stock map for 2040 and the stock changes from 2020–2040 under Scenario 2. </p>

Those additional data were acquired from: https://www.lter.uaf.edu/d1/d1-detail/id/773 and https://daac.ornl.gov/ABOVE/guides/ABoVE_Plot_Data_Burned_Sites.html. From this complete data set of 333 plots, 311 plots were used in analyses in Black at al. (NCC) paper: "Increased deciduous tree dominance reduces wildfire carbon losses in boreal forests". Plots excluded (from 2022 FiSL data) were poplar-dominated, mixed poplar/conifer dominated, missing soil C data, or conifer-dominated (adventituous root heights were not recorded consistently at sites in 2022 making it impossible to estimate pre-fire conifer stand organic soil C pools for 2022-collected conifer plots). Only 2005-collected conifer plots were used in NCC paper analyses. For all plots, in addition to field/lab derived site characteristics and combustion metrics, post hoc remotely sensed metrics were derived: pre-fire NDVI/EVI-2 trends, 1980-2010 climate normals, and DOB weather metrics.
Long-term nitrogen fertilization inhibits carbon and nitrogen loss during late stage fungal necromass decomposition depending on necromass chemistry
Fungal necromass is increasingly recognized as a key component of in soil carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) cycling. However, how C and N loss from fungal necromass during decomposition are impacted by global change factors such as anthropogenic N addition and changes to soil C supply (e.g. via changing root exudation and rhizosphere priming) remains unclear and understudied relative to plant tissues. To address these gaps, we conducted a year-long decomposition experiment with four species of fungal necromass incubated across four forested sites in plots that had received inorganic N and/or labile C fertilization for decades in Minnesota, USA. We found that necromass chemistry was the primary driver of C and N loss from fungal necromass as well as response to fertilization. Specifically, N addition suppressed late-stage decomposition, but this effect was weaker in melanin-rich necromass, contrary to the hypothesis based on plant litter dynamics that N addition should suppress decomposition of more complex organic molecules. Labile C addition had no effect on either the early or late stages of necromass decomposition. Nitrogen release from necromass also varied among species, with N-poor necromass having lower N release after controlling for differences in mass loss via regression. The relatively minor effects of N fertilization on the proportion of initial necromass N released suggests that N demand by decomposers is the primary control on N loss during fungal necromass decomposition. Together, our results stress the importance of the afterlife effects of fungal chemical composition to forest soil C and N cycles. Further, they demonstrate that C and N release from this critical pool can be reduced by ongoing anthropogenic N addition.
Consequences of non-random tree species loss on litter mass loss, nutrient dynamics, carbon cycling, and decomposer communities across a terrestrial-aquatic interface at Coweeta Hydrologic Lab, Otto, NC
Although litter decomposition is a fundamental ecological process, most of our understanding comes from studies of single-species decay. Recently, litter-mixing studies have tested whether monoculture data can be applied to mixed-litter systems. These studies have mainly attempted to detect non-additive effects of litter mixing, which address potential consequences of random species loss. The focus is not on which species are lost, but the decline in diversity per se. Under global change, species loss is likely to be non-random, with some species more vulnerable to extinction than others. Under such scenarios, the effects of individual species (additivity) as well as of species interactions (non-additivity) on decomposition rates are of interest. To examine potential impacts of non-random species loss on ecosystems, we studied additive and non-additive effects of litter mixing on decomposition. A full-factorial litterbag experiment was conducted using four deciduous leaf species, from which mass loss and nitrogen content were measured. Data were analysed using a statistical approach that first looks for additive identity effects based on the presence or absence of species and then significant species interactions occurring beyond those. It partitions non-additive effects into those caused by richness and or composition.
Soil organic carbon loss decreases biodiversity but stimulates multitrophic interactions that promote belowground metabolism
<p>Soil organic carbon (SOC) plays an essential role in mediating community structure and metabolic activities of belowground biota. Unraveling the evolution of belowground communities and their feedback mechanisms on SOC dynamics helps embed the ecology of soil microbiome into carbon cycling, which serves to improve biodiversity conservation and carbon management strategy under global change. Here, croplands with a SOC gradient were used to understand how belowground metabolisms and SOC decomposition were linked to the diversity, composition, and co-occurrence networks of belowground communities encompassing archaea, bacteria, fungi, protists, and invertebrates. As SOC decreased, the diversity of prokaryotes and eukaryotes also decreased, but their network complexity showed contrasting patterns: prokaryotes increased due to intensified niche overlap, while that of eukaryotes decreased possibly because of greater dispersal limitation owing to the breakdown of macro aggregates. Despite the decrease in biodiversity and SOC stocks, the belowground metabolic capacity was enhanced as indicated by increased enzyme activity and decreased enzymatic stoichiometric imbalance. This could, in turn, expedite carbon loss through respiration, particularly in the slow-cycling pool. The enhanced belowground metabolic capacity was dominantly driven by greater multitrophic network complexity and particularly negative (competitive and predator-prey) associations, which fostered the stability of the belowground metacommunity. Interestingly, soil abiotic conditions including pH, aeration, and nutrient stocks, exhibited a less significant role. Overall, this study reveals a greater need for soil C resources across multitrophic levels to maintain metabolic functionality as declining SOC results in biodiversity loss. Our researchers highlight the importance of integrating belowground biological processes into models of SOC turnover, to improve agroecosystem functioning and carbon management in the face of intensifying anthropogenic land-use and climate change.</p>
