Carbon allocation in an East African ant-acacia: field testing a 13C-labeling method for evaluating biotic impacts on the carbon cycle
Tree carbon allocation is a dynamic process that depends on the tree’s environment, but we know relatively little about how biotic interactions...

Disentangling Diel Variations in the Carbon Isotopic Composition of Soil CO2 Efflux: Insights from a Multi-chamber System and a Non-Steady-State Model
Soil carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) efflux ( F s ) and its carbon isotopic composition ( δ Fs ) based on the chamber methods are widely used to represent soil...

Effect of Drought and Heavy Precipitation on CH4 Emissions and δ13C–CH4 in a Northern Temperate Peatland
Shifting precipitation patterns due to climate change may impact peatland methane (CH 4 ) emissions, as precipitation affects water table level which...

CH4 transport in wetland plants under controlled environmental conditions – separating the impacts of phenology from environmental variables
Background and AimsMethane (CH 4 ) fluxes at peatland plant surfaces are net results of transport of soil-produced CH 4 and within-plant CH 4 production...
