Effects of Drying-Rewetting Frequency on Vertical and Lateral Loss of Soil Organic Carbon in a Tidal Salt Marsh

Heavy metal and organic carbon fractionation in sodium pyrophosphate extracts of tidal marsh soils

Tidal influences on carbon assimilation by a salt marsh

Salt marshes are among the most productive ecosystems on Earth, and play an important role in the global carbon cycle. Net carbon dioxide (CO2) ecosystem exchanges in coastal salt marshes remain poorly investigated. In Spartina alterniflora dominated North American Atlantic coast marshes, the lack of a clear understanding of how Spartina alterniflora responds to flooding limits our current abil...

the effect of soil drying and rewetting on dissolve organic carbon, organic and inorganic phosphorus and nitrogen

abstract soil drying and rewetting (drw) cycles are considered as environmental stress that would affect the physical, chemical and biological properties of soil and nutrient cycles. the study of soil drying and rewetting effects on plant nutrition and soil fertility is very important and crucial specially their environmental effects. in this study, the effects of 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 drying and re...

critical period effects in foreign language learning:the influence of maturational state on the acquisition of reading,writing, and grammar in english as a foreign language

since the 1960s the age effects on learning both first and second language have been explored by many linguists and applied linguists (e.g lennerberg, 1967; schachter, 1996; long, 1990) and the existence of critical period for language acquisition was found to be a common ground of all these studies. in spite of some common findings, some issues about the impacts of age on acquiring a second or...
