#Afforestation in subtropical #KarstEcosystems drives #SoilOrganicCarbon accumulation through distinct, depth-dependent pathways --- fostering microbial activity in the topsoil and enhancing mineral protective capacity.

Microbial carbon use efficiency (CUE) and nitrogen use efficiency (NUE) were significantly positively correlated, and both declined with increasing nitrogen addition rates.

The significant decrease in soil #CO2Emissions with increasing #SoilDepth in old-growth #SubtropicalForests is primarily due to diminished microbial activity and reduced availability of substrates in deeper layers.
