Resolving the intricate role of climate in litter decomposition

Three complementary decomposition experiments across a climatic gradient in Europe, representing 110 different tree species mixtures in 194 forest plots, reveals that macroclimate is a dominant control on plant litter decomposition through both direct and indirect effects.

Jack-of-all-trades effects drive biodiversity–ecosystem multifunctionality relationships in European forests

How biodiversity is linked to multiple ecosystem functions is not fully understood. Here, the authors show that a new mechanism, which they term the 'jack-of-all-trades' effect, best explains patterns of tree diversity and ecosystem multifunctionality in European forests.

Conceptualizing soil fauna effects on labile and stabilized soil organic matter

In their review, Angst et al. conceptualize how the ecological strategies of a multitude of soil faunal taxa can influence the formation of particulate and mineral-associated organic matter. The authors highlight research gaps and ways forward.

Detritivore conversion of litter into faeces accelerates organic matter turnover

By performing an ecologically relevant experiment with variety in litter composition and detritivore species, Joly et al. find that litter conversion into faeces has a profound effect on organic matter lability and decomposition. These findings have implications for biogeochemical models of carbon cycling.
