Increased Electron-Accepting and Decreased Electron-Donating Capacities of Soil Humic Substances in Response to Increasing Temperature

Abstract: The electron transfer capacities (ETCs) of soil humic substances (HSs) are linked to the type and abundance of redox-active functional moieties in their structure. Natural temperature can affect the chemical structure of natural organic matter by regulating their oxidative transformation and degradation in soil. However, it is unclear if there is a direct correlation between ETC of soil HS and mean annual temperature. In this study, we assess the response of the electron-accepting and -donating capacities (EAC… Show more

“…The above information indicates that the C:H, HIX, humic‐like component, and E 4 :E 6 of HS can be utilised as indicators for quinonoid structures. Therefore, our results on the significant correlations between these chemical indicators and RCs of HSs confirm the previous viewpoint that the aromatic structures, such as quinones, can function as redox‐active groups in HSs (Aeschbacher et al, ; Lovley et al, ; Scott et al, ; Tan et al, ). Although HAs and FAs show remarkable differences in degree polymerisation, MW, and solubility at a strong acidic pH (Stevenson, ), our results showed that the significant relationships between microbial RCs and chemical properties were present both in individual data sets of HAs and FAs and in the integrated data set including HAs and FAs (Figure S5), thus indicating that the responsibility of aromatic systems for the microbial RCs of HSs was independent of HS fraction.…”

“…Our recent works demonstrated the significant relationships between the redox properties of HSs and their chemical structures using a variety of soils along latitude and altitude transects and from agriculture lands (Tan et al, ; Tan et al, ); the results of these studies indicated that the causation of chemical structures with redox properties of soil HSs is independent of the soil source. Thus, although we demonstrated the significantly negative association of the reversible extent of HSs after microbial reduction and then O 2 reoxidation with their AMWs merely using paddy soils, our result is also applicable for HSs originating from other types of soils and matrices.…”
