Sound management may sequester methane in grazed rangeland ecosystems
Considering their contribution to global warming, the sources and sinks of methane (CH4) should be accounted when undertaking a greenhouse gas inventory for grazed rangeland ecosystems. The aim of this study was to evaluate the mitigation potential of current ecological management programs implemented in the main rangeland regions of China. The influences of rangeland improvement, utilization a...
متن کاملSoil Microbial Biomass Carbon and Nitrogen in Himalayan Rangeland of Eastern Nepal: A Comparison between Grazed and Non-grazed Rangelands
Soil microbial biomass plays an important role in nutrient transformation in terrestrial ecosystems. Microbial biomass is also an early indicator of changes in total soil organic carbon. Thus, the main objective of this study was to identify and quantify the present status of soil microbial biomass carbon and nitrogen with various management practices in Himalayan rangeland. To meet the aforeme...
متن کاملLearning to Explain: An Information-Theoretic Perspective on Model Interpretation
We introduce instancewise feature selection as a methodology for model interpretation. Our method is based on learning a function to extract a subset of features that are most informative for each given example. This feature selector is trained to maximize the mutual information between selected features and the response variable, where the conditional distribution of the response variable give...
متن کاملNitrogen saturation in stream ecosystems.
The concept of nitrogen (N) saturation has organized the assessment of N loading in terrestrial ecosystems. Here we extend the concept to lotic ecosystems by coupling Michaelis-Menten kinetics and nutrient spiraling. We propose a series of saturation response types, which may be used to characterize the proximity of streams to N saturation. We conducted a series of short-term N releases using a...
متن کاملMineralization of Nitrogen in Organic Soils
The effect of fluctuating seasonal temperatures on the release of soluble NO3-N, NHJ-N, soluble organic N (SON), and solube organic C (SOC) into drainage effluent during soil organic matter mineralization was measured on organic soil profiles obtained intact from various locations in Florida. Soil columns were leached once every 25 days, followed by applying a suction of 100 cm. Soil columns we...
