2021-09-18South China Botanical Garden Xiaoliang Station Made Important Research Progress in the Research Direction of the Carbon Sequestration Function of Coastal Shelter ForestsImpact of fertilization on ecological functions of these coastal shelterbelts , especially the C sink function , is an essential scientific issue in the current.Coastal C sink research .Typical C . equisetifolia Coastal Shelter Forest of in Southern China ？ ( Photographed near the Experimental Platform of Coastal Shelter Forest , Xiaoliang Trop... Casuarina equisetifolia plantations have been widely established along tropical and subtropical coasts, where they act as a windbreak to shelter coastal areas. C. equisetifolia shelter plantations also fulfill another critical ecosystem service by sequestering large amounts of carbon (C), contributing to climate change mitigation. However, shelt...Read More -

Although only needed in small quantities, mineral nutrients like calcium, magnesium, zinc, copper, iron and manganese are important for plants. However, plants absorb these nutrients only from soils, and their availability may be greatly affected by soil nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) availability. Here we used a forest fertilization experiment...Read More -
2021-09-15New progress on mapping China forest aboveground biomass through integration of multiple datasetsMapping spatial variation of forest aboveground biomass ( AGB ) at national or regional scale is important for estimating carbon emissions and removals and contributing to global stocktake and balancing the carbon budget .According to the 9th national forest inventory results , the forest area of China reaches 220.45 million hectares , with the ...Read More
Mapping spatial variation of forest aboveground biomass (AGB) at national or regional scale is important for estimating carbon emissions and removals and contributing to global stocktake and balancing the carbon budget. With the implementation of national ecological restoration projects, the forest area in China increased rapidly since the ... -

Previously, Dr. David W. Ow’ s group in South China Botanical Garden found that overexpression of Arabidopsis OXS3 (OXIDATIVE STRESS 3) or OXS3-like cDNAs in Schizosaccharomyces pombe enhances tolerance to heavy metals or oxidizing chemicals, and they speculated that the OXS proteins could play crucial roles in stress tolerance in plants. ...
