Estimation of component contributions to total terrestrial water storage change in the Yangtze River basin (2020)
Journal Article
Chao, N., Jin, T., Cai, Z., Chen, G., Liu, X., & Wang, Z. (2021). Estimation of component contributions to total terrestrial water storage change in the Yangtze River basin. Journal of Hydrology, 595, Article 125661. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jhydrol.2020.125661

Terrestrial water storage (TWS) is a key variable in global and regional hydrological cycles. In this study, the TWS changes in the Yangtze River Basin (YRB) were derived using the Lagrange multiplier method (LMM) from Gravity Recovery and Climate Ex...

Response of soil bacterial community composition and its associated geochemical parameters to rapid short-term cyclic groundwater-level oscillations: soil column experiments (2020)
Journal Article
Xia, X., Cheng, L., Zhu, Y., Liu, Y., Wang, K., Ding, A., Cai, Z., Shi, H., & Zuo, L. (2020). Response of soil bacterial community composition and its associated geochemical parameters to rapid short-term cyclic groundwater-level oscillations: soil column experiments. Vadose Zone Journal, 19(1), Article e20011. https://doi.org/10.1002/vzj2.20011

Groundwater-level oscillations change geochemical conditions, carbon cycling processes and bacterial community composition, and these changes may vary vertically with depth in a soil. In this study, soil column experiments were conducted to explore v...
