Drought effects on soil carbon and nitrogen dynamics in global natural ecosystems

Lei Deng et al.

Summary: Extreme droughts can have serious impacts on the pools, fluxes, and processes of terrestrial carbon and nitrogen cycles. This study found that drought leads to a decrease in soil organic carbon content, an increase in mineral nitrogen content, and a decrease in nitrogen mineralization and nitrification rates. The effects of drought on soil C and N cycles are regulated by ecosystem type, drought duration, and intensity.

Soil biota response to experimental rainfall reduction depends on the dominant tree species in mature northern Mediterranean forests

Adriane Aupic-Samain et al.

Summary: Soil organisms play a crucial role in forest ecosystems and are highly influenced by environmental conditions. This study found that the effects of different tree species and drought conditions on soil biota varied, with Ca, Mg, SLA, and WHC identified as key drivers of soil biota parameters.

Drought alters the carbon footprint of trees in soils-tracking the spatio-temporal fate of 13C-labelled assimilates in the soil of an old-growth pine forest

Decai Gao et al.

Summary: This study investigated the transfer and use of assimilates between trees and rhizosphere under drought conditions and found that irrigation can alleviate the impact of drought on assimilate transfer. Microbes in the rhizosphere play a significant role in absorbing assimilates, while irrigation influences the area of rhizosphere and C allocation within trees.
