Climate effects on belowground tea litter decomposition depend on ecosystem and...
Trevathan-Tackett, Stacey M.; Kepfer-Rojas, Sebastian; Malerba, Martino; Macreadie, Peter I.; Djukic, Ika; Zhao, Junbin; Young, Erica B.; York, Paul H.Patchy global data on belowground litter decomposition dynamics limit our capacity to discern the drivers of carbon preservation and storage across inland and coastal wetlands. We performed a global, multiyear study in over 180 wetlands across 28 countries and 8 macroclimates using standardized litter as measures of "recalcitrant" (rooibos tea) and "labile" (green tea) organic matter (OM) decomposition. Freshwa...

Ecosystem type drives tea litter decomposition and associated prokaryotic micro...
Trevathan-Tackett, Stacey M.; Kepfer-Rojas, Sebastian; Engelen, Aschwin; York, Paul H.; Ola, Anne; Li, Jinquan; Kelleway, Jeffrey J.; Jinks, Kristin I.Wetland ecosystems are critical to the regulation of the global carbon cycle, and there is a high demand for data to improve carbon sequestration and emission models and predictions. Decomposition of plant litter is an important component of ecosystem carbon cycling, yet a lack of knowledge on decay rates in wetlands is an impediment to predicting carbon preservation. Here, we aim to fill this knowledge gap by ...

The future of Blue Carbon science
Macreadie, Peter I.; Anton, Andrea; Raven, John A.; Beaumont, Nicola; Connolly, Rod M.; Friess, Daniel A.; Kelleway, Jeffrey J.; Kennedy, HilaryThe term Blue Carbon (BC) was first coined a decade ago to describe the disproportionately large contribution of coastal vegetated ecosystems to global carbon sequestration. The role of BC in climate change mitigation and adaptation has now reached international prominence. To help prioritise future research, we assembled leading experts in the field to agree upon the top-ten pending questions in BC science. Un...
