Biogeochemical Processes in Tropical Soils

In recent years science has taken an increased interest in mineralization processes in tropical soils in particular under minimal tillage operations. Plant litter quality and management strongly affect mineralization-nitrification processes in soil and hence the fate of nitrogen in ecosystems and the environment. Plant secondary metabolites like lignin and polyphenols are poorly degradable and interact with proteins (protein binding capacity) and hence protect them from microbial attack. Nitrification, a microbiological process, directly and indirectly influences the efficiency of recovery of N in the vegetation as well as the loss of N (through denitrification and leaching) causing environmental pollution to water bodies and contributes to global warming (e.g. the greenhouse gas N2O is emitted as a by-product of nitrification and denitrification). Nitrifiers comprise a relatively narrow species diversity (at least as known to date) and are generally thought to be sensitive to low soil pH and stress. Despite these properties nitrification occurs in acid tropical soils with high levels of aluminium and manganese. Thus the main objective of the project will be the identification of micro-organisms and mechanisms responsible for mineralization-nitrification processes in acid tropical soils and the influence of long-term litter input of different chemical qualities and minimal tillage options. The project will include the use of stable isotopes (15N, 13C), mass spectrometry, gas chromatography (CO2, N2O), biochemical methods (PLFA) and molecular biology (16s rRNA., PCR, DGGE)

Impact of long-term exposure to elevated pCO2 on activity and populations of free living N2 fixing organisms in a temperate grassland system

The project aims at achieving a better understanding of the processes that drive or limit the response of grassland systems in a world of increasing atmospheric pCO2. We will test the hypothesis that the previously shown increase in below-ground allocation of C under elevated pCO2 provides the necessary energy excess and will stimulate free-living N2 fixers in a low N grassland environment. The project thus aims at assessing the occurrence and importance of free-living N2 fixers under elevated pCO2 and identify the associated microbial communities involved in order to better understand ecosystems response and sustainability of grassland systems. This project had the last opportunity to obtain soil samples from a grassland ecosystem adapted to long-term (10 year) elevated atmospheric pCO2 as the Swiss FACE experiment. The project aims to identify the relevant components of free-living diazotrophs of the microbial community using 15N stable isotope - DNA probing.

Immissions- und Emissionsmessungen von Bioaerosolen im Bereich von Geflügel- und Schweinestallungen (Luquasta) - Teilbereich HBLFA Raumberg-Gumpenstein

Bedeutung des Projekts für die Praxis: Die Daten sollen einen Hinweis darauf geben, ob die Maßnahmen in der Landwirtschaft im Luftreinhalteprogramm 2014 des Landes Steiermark eine Minimierung der Bioaerosol Konzentration in der Luft bewirken können. In einem Merkblatt werden Faktoren, die zur Minimierung der Konzentration luftgetragener Keime und Partikel führen, aufgeführt. Wenn zwischen Kontaminationsquellen und Anrainern eine Übertragung von Staub und seinen biologischen Bestandteilen bzw. Keim- und Staubemission weitgehend ausgeschlossen werden kann, sind normalerweise aus umweltmedizinischer Sicht Emissions-minderungsmaßnahmen nicht erforderlich. Mit den vorliegenden Ergebnissen besteht die Möglichkeit ein für die Steiermark und anderen Ländern gültiges Konzept mit regionalspezifischer Vorgehensweise zu erarbeiten. Zielsetzung: Die HBLFA Raumberg-Gumpenstein, Abt. Tierhaltungssysteme, Technik & Emissionen, Institut für Tier, Technik und Umwelt ist im gegenständlichen Projekt (genehmigter Antrag wurde durch die Medizinische Universität Graz gestellt, Nr. 101263/3) entscheidend an der Auswahl der Versuchsbetriebe beteiligt, sie stellt zum Teil die Kontakte zu den Betriebsleitern her, übernimmt in den einzelnen Messkampagnen die Emissionsmessungen an den Kaminöffnungen der Projektbetriebe und ist den gesamten Projektablauf (Planung der Messungen, regelmäßige Besprechungen, Diskussion der Auswertungsergebnisse, Erstellung des Abschlussberichtes) involviert. Des Weiteren werden an den jeweiligen Messtagen auf den Projektbetrieben der Status der Lüftungstechnik (Ansteuerungsleistung der Ventilatoren, Messung der Abluftgeschwindigkeit ...) sowie die Bedingungen im Stall und Tierbereich (Temperatur, Feuchte, Tiergewichte, Futtermittel, Einstreu ...) dokumentiert Das Ziel dieses Projekts besteht darin, den Istzustand der Emissionen und Immissionen von Bioaerosolen und Feinstaubpartikeln im Bereich von Tierhaltungsanlagen mit verschiedenen Messstrategien zu erheben. Für die Beurteilung der anlagenbezogenen Emissionen und Immissionen wird vergleichend die natürliche Hintergrundkonzentration der Bioaerosole und Feinstaubpartikel in der Umgebungsluft bestimmt. Es gilt festzustellen, ob die Keimkonzentrationen der Umgebungsluft aus der Stallluft resultieren. Die Leitparameter (Keime bzw. biogene Substanzen), welche in VDI 4250 Blatt 3 (2016) Richtlinie zur Emissions- und Immissionsbeurteilung herangezogen werden, werden auf ihre Adaptierbarkeit überprüft. Für die zukünftigen Bewertungen der Immissionen werden Ausbreitungsrechnungen durchgeführt, um die Fläche des Areals zu definieren, in dem ein neu zu errichtendes Stallgebäude für die Haltung von Nutztieren stehen soll. Die Daten aus der vorliegenden Studie werden mit den Ergebnissen und Bewertungen anderer EU Länder verglichen, um ein Konzept für eine Bewertungsgrundlage zu erstellen. (Text gekürzt)

hydrodownloadR: transparent and reproducible access to hydrological time series

Hydrological science depends on reliable observations. At the same time, many hydrological datasets are distributed across numerous national and regional services, each with its own access routes, documentation, and terms of use. This fragmentation can make it difficult to clearly document where data come from and to reproduce data retrieval in a consistent way. To provide more transparent and reproducible access to hydrological observations, GRDC has developed hydrodownloadR . The R package offers a standardized way to discover hydrological stations and download daily time series such as discharge, water level, water temperature and selected water-quality parameters directly from public national and regional APIs. Transparency in data retrieval is crucial because hydrological assessments and scientific results must be explainable and verifiable across institutions. This is particularly relevant for the annually released WMO State of the Global Water Resources Report , for which GRDC provides data. The hydrodownloadR package supports data retrieval workflows for both routine GRDC data updates and the WMO report. However, the package can also benefit users who require stations that are not yet included in the GRDC database. In such cases, the package provides a straightforward way to access time series directly from the original provider while keeping the data source explicit. It is important that hydrodownloadR , where available, highlights licensing and terms of use information for each API. Furthermore it is designed to access services responsibly by avoiding excessive requests. Nevertheless, users remain responsible for complying with the providers’ terms of use and citation requirements. Coverage and available parameters depend on the underlying public APIs and their data policies. Call to action: If you know a public hydrology API or you operate one, please share with us the documentation link, licensing information, terms of use and, if possible, stable endpoints. Also, if you encounter errors or unexpected behavior, please report them via the project’s GitHub issue tracker so we can address them efficiently. This will help to further improve the package and optimize the discoverability and accessibility of hydrological data. Links: Documentation Source code and issue tracker

Site information for porewater chemistry survey of European peatlands

The study investigates the chemical and physical characteristics of porewater and soil samples from peatlands across 64 sites in Germany, Poland, Estonia, Scotland, Sweden, and Georgia sampled between 1997 and 2017. The sites covers oceanic (Cfb, Cfc) and continental (Dfb, Dfc) climate zones and include both minerotrophic fens and ombrotrophic bogs. Fens were further classified into poor and rich types based on acidity and floristic composition, with rich fens characterized by higher pH and calcium concentrations due to mineral-rich groundwater inputs. The study also distinguishes between natural sites with stable near-surface water tables and rewetted sites previously subjected to drainage and agricultural use.

Seasonal Dataset of DO, δ¹⁸ODO and Biogeochemical Parameters in the Danube River (2023–2024)

This dataset contains dissolved oxygen (DO) concentrations, stable oxygen isotope ratios of DO (δ¹⁸ODO), particulate organic carbon (POC) concentrations, and respiration/photosynthesis (R/P) ratios, along with corresponding parameters (temperature, δ¹⁸OH2O, nitrate) collected from the Danube River and its key tributaries during five seasonal sampling campaigns in 2023 and 2024. Water samples were collected using a weighted 2 L sampling bottle submerged 1–2 meters below the surface, with sampling conducted from the river center via bridges or passenger boats, and occasionally from the riverbank. In situ temperature measurements were taken with a multiparameter instrument (HQ40d, HACH™, Loveland, CO, USA). δ¹⁸ODO was analyzed using a modified automated equilibration system (Gasbench II, ThermoFisher Scientific™) coupled to a DELTA V Advantage isotope ratio mass spectrometer (IRMS, ThermoFisher Scientific™). This dataset captures seasonal variations in DO dynamics and provides valuable insights into oxygen sources and sinks within the Danube River. The data support the study of biogeochemical cycling in large river systems and can inform ecosystem management and conservation strategies in the face of environmental and climate change.

Timeseries of binned benthic stable carbon isotope from ODP Site 162-982,130-807 and ODP Site 162-982

This dataset contains C. wuellerstorfi stable carbon isotope values binned by marine isotope stage from ODP Site 162-807 and ODP Site 162-982 that span the last 4.5 million years (Feng et al. 2022; Venz et al. 1999, 2002; Hodell & Venz-Curtis 2006). This isotope gradient reflects the accumulation of respired and disequilibrium carbon in the deep Pacific ocean relative to the North Atlantic. Also included are binned probstack δ18O (Ahn et al., 2017) and ΔGMST (Clark et al., 2024) values for comparison to the binned stable carbon isotope values.

Early Miocene intensification of the North African hydrological cycle: multi-proxy evidence from the shelf carbonates of Malta - Geochemical data

A total of 140 samples were collected from the il-Blata section outcropping on the Mediterranean Island of Malta (base of section at 35.9004˚N, 14.3309˚E, top of section at 35.9000˚N, 14.3314˚E). 16 of these samples were selected to determine the 87Sr/86Sr in the bulk sediment and used to generate numerical ages using the LOWESS FIT for Sr-Stratigraphy (McArthur et al., 2012). All 87Sr/86Sr measurements conducted at the University of Geneva using a Thermo Neptune PLUS Multi-Collector inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometer. Data and numerical age model presented in table S1. The εNd data from (Bialik et al., 2019) were recalibrated to fit the new age model and presented in table S2. The percentage carbonate matter was measured using a FOGl digital calcimeter at the University of Malta (table S3). Dry powders were used to generate a stable isotope (δ18O & δ13C) record (table S4), all measurements were conducted on a Gasbench II coupled to a Thermo Delta V Advantage isotope ratio mass spectrometer at the School of Earth and Environmental Sciences, Cardiff University. Dry bulk sediment powders were also used to obtain major element composition and calculate element ratios Sr/Ca, Ti/Al, K/Al, Zr/Al, Si/Ti. All element measurements were conducted at The School of Earth and Environmental Sciences, Cardiff University using a hand-held Olympus Delta Innov-X XRF gun. Element data presented in table S5. Mean values of the ratios Sr/Ca, Ti/Al, K/Al, Zr/Al and Si/Ti were obtained for three different parts in the section in order to determine regime changes (table S6).
