  • Elevation‐Driven Contrasting Mechanisms of Carbon‐Degrading Enzyme Activities Between Topsoil and Subsoil in Hengduan Mountain Forests

    Open AccessZhengyi Huang, Qian Zhang et al.ARTICLELand Degradation and Development2026

    The balance between oxidative and hydrolytic extracellular enzyme activities (Ox‐EEAs and Hy‐EEAs, respectively) serves as a key indicator of microbial substrate preferences, offering insights into the decomposition dynamics of diverse soil organic carbon (C) pools within forest ecosystems. Despite its significance, spatial patterns and environmental determinants of the ratio of Ox‐EEAs to Hy‐EEAs (Ox‐to‐Hy EEA ratio)—particularly across elevatio…

  • Changes in soil water content and lateral flow exert large effects on soil thermal dynamics across Alaskan landscapes

    Open AccessXiangyu Liu, Qianlai Zhuang et al.ARTICLEEnvironmental Research Letters2025

    Both lateral surface and subsurface water flow affect soil moisture dynamics, yet most land surface models only solve subsurface water movement vertically. Here, we use a 3D ecosystem model that considers both land surface and subsurface hydrologic processes to simulate soil moisture, which is then used to drive a 1-D vertical soil thermal model to simulate the soil moisture effects on soil thermal dynamics in central Alaska. Our coupled model im…
