Journal ArticleDOI
Fire effects on belowground sustainability: a review and synthesis
TL;DR: In this article, a general review of the effects of fire on belowground systems with emphasis placed on the changes in physical, biogeochemical and biological properties of soils and the resulting consequences these changes have for ecosystem sustainability.
Journal ArticleDOI
Controls on soil respiration in semiarid soils
TL;DR: In this paper, the influence of soil moisture on the relationship between temperature and soil respiration was evaluated and the impact of substrate quality on short-term respiration responses by carrying out substrate-induced respiration assessments for each soil at nine different temperatures.
Journal ArticleDOI
The effects of litter quality and climate on decomposition along an elevational gradient
TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined the decomposition of native plant litter along an elevational gradient in northern Arizona to determine the influence of litter quality and climate on the rate of decomposition in semiarid communities.
Journal ArticleDOI
Environmental Factors Controlling Soil Respiration in Three Semiarid Ecosystems
TL;DR: In this paper, an 18-mo experiment along an elevation gradient in northern Arizona to evaluate the influence of temperature, moisture, and soil C pool size on soil respiration was conducted.
Journal ArticleDOI
Carbon pools and fluxes along an environmental gradient in northern Arizona
TL;DR: Carbon pools and fluxes were quantified along an environmentalgradient in northern Arizona as discussed by the authors, where vegetation, litter, and soil C pools and soil CO2 fluxes from ecosystems ranging from shrub-steppe through woodlands to coniferousforest and the ecotones in between.
