TL;DR: In this paper, a detailed characterization of the mineralogy, chemistry, particle size and surface area of six mined basalts being used in large-scale ERW field trials is presented.

Impact of temperature and moisture on heterotrophic soil respiration along a moist tropical forest gradient in Australia
Michael Zimmermann,Michael Zimmermann,Kalu Davies,V. T. V. Peña de Zimmermann,Michael I. Bird +4 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the impact of temperature and precipitation on aboveground and belowground C cycling in tropical ecosystems is not well understood, and the authors use the translocated soil cores among three elevations (100, 700 and 1540m a.s.) representing a range in mean annual temperature of 10.9°C and in rainfall of 6840 mm.

Field-based cavity ring-down spectrometry of δ13C in soil-respired CO2
TL;DR: Although there are inherent difficulties in obtaining absolute accuracy data for δ13C values in soil-respired CO2, the similarity of δ12C values obtained for the same test soil with different analytical configurations indicated that an acceptable accuracy of the δ 13C data were obtained by the WS-CRDS techniques presented here.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present detailed stratified floristic and structural analyses for forest and savanna stands located mostly within zones of transition (where both vegetation types occur in close proximity) in Africa, South America and Australia.
