Significance Climate change increases the frequency of drought events and leads to higher variability in precipitation. Drought impairs rhizosphere (root root-associated microbiome) functioning trees a reduced assimilate supply belowground. It remains unclear if thus whole-tree can quickly recover after release. We show that metabolic activity previously drought-exposed 100-y-old Scots pine increased response subtle soil moisture (induced by light rainfall). As consequence this change,...
Abstract Above and belowground compartments in ecosystems are closely coupled on daily to annual timescales. In mature forests, this interlinkage how it is impacted by drought still poorly understood. Here, we pulse‐labelled 100‐year‐old trees with 13 CO 2 within a 15‐year‐long irrigation experiment naturally dry pine forest quantify regime affects the transfer use of assimilates from rhizosphere associated microbial communities. It took 4 days until new C‐labelled were allocated...
Research on drought impact tree functioning is focussed primarily water and carbon (C) dynamics. Changes in nutrient uptake might also affect performance under there a need to explore underlying mechanisms. We investigated effects of (a) situ nitrogen (N) uptake, accounting for both, N availability fine roots soil actual (b) physiological capacity (c) the new assimilates influencing using 15N 13C labelling. assessed saplings six different species (Acer pseudoplatanus L., Fagus sylvatica...
Summary The link between above‐ and belowground communities is a key uncertainty in drought rewetting effects on forest carbon (C) cycle. In young beech model ecosystems mature naturally dry pine exposed to 15‐yr‐long irrigation, we performed 13 C pulse labeling experiments, one during 2 wk after rewetting, tracing tree assimilates into rhizosphere communities. pulses applied crowns reached soil microbial of the forests 4 d later, respectively. Drought decreased transfer labeled relative...
Abstract The carbon and oxygen isotopic composition of water assimilates in plants reveals valuable information on plant responses to climatic conditions. Yet, the uptake, incorporation allocation processes determining compositions are not fully understood. We carried out a dual-isotope labeling experiment at high humidity with 18O-enriched (H218O) 13C-enriched CO2 (13CO2) attached Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) branches detached twigs hemiparasitic mistletoes (Viscum album ssp....
Abstract. The short-term dynamics of carbon and water fluxes across the soil–plant–atmosphere continuum are still not fully understood. One important constraint is lack methodologies that enable simultaneous measurements soil CO2 concentration respective isotopic composition at a high temporal resolution for longer periods time. δ13C can be used to derive information on origin physiological history carbon, δ18O in aids inferring interaction between water. We established real-time method...

A central aspect this transformation is continuous change, making resilience professionals critical factor for success companies. This descriptive research systematically examines how Technical Competency organizational leadership contribute to nurturing their resilience. responses from 345 collected through...
Raorchestes resplendens, a Critically Endangered rhacophorid frog until now is known only from the type locality, Anamudi summit in Eravikulam National Park, southern Western Ghats, Kerala. This species has been sighted hitherto unknown location, but within Park.

<p>It is getting more and clear that the sink activity in trees strongly determines carbon (C) uptake within-plant C distribution. Here we show short- long-term changes water availability impacted belowground (mycorrhizosphere) strength, which however, not only affected transport to roots but also nitrogen (N) by tree N allocation aboveground tissues. The negative drought impact on might be a result of reduced root growth lower recent assimilates for mobilizing inorganic soil...
