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 HPatchy 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...

Oil Pollution Affects the Central Metabolism of Keystone Vachellia (Acacia) Trees
Ferrante, Marco; Dangol, Anuma; Didi-Cohen, Shoshana; Winters, Gidon; Tzin, Vered; Segoli, MichalVachellia (formerly Acacia) trees are native to arid environments in Africa and the Arabian Peninsula, where they often support the local animal and plant communities acting as keystone species. The aim of this study was to examine whether oil pollution affected the central metabolism of the native keystone trees Vachellia tortilis (Forssk.) and V. raddiana (Savi), as either adults or seedlings. The study was c...
The tropical seagrass halophila stipulacea: reviewing what we know from its nat...
Winters, Gidon; Beer, Sven; Willette, Demian A.; Viana, Inés G.; Chiquillo, Kelcie L.; Beca-Carretero, Pedro; Villamayor, Betty; Azcárate-García, TomásHalophila stipulacea is a small tropical seagrass, native to the Red Sea, Persian Gulf, and the Indian Ocean. It invaded the Mediterranean Sea 150 years ago as a Lessepsian migrant, but so far has remained in insulated, small populations across this basin. Surprisingly, in 2002 it was reported in the Caribbean Sea, where within less than two decades it spread to most of the Caribbean Island nations and reaching...
