Exposure to warming and CO2 enrichment promotes greater above-ground biomass, nitrogen, phosphorus and arbuscular mycorrhizal colonization in newly established grasslands
In view of the projected increase in global air temperature and CO2 concentration, the effects of climatic changes on biomass production, CO2 fluxes and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) colonization in newly es...

Spatial variability and controls over biomass stocks, carbon fluxes, and resource-use efficiencies across forest ecosystems
Stand age, water availability, and the length of the warm period are the most influencing controls of forest structure, functioning, and efficiency.

Nutrient availability and climate as the main determinants of the ratio of biomass to NPP in woody and non-woody forest compartments
Once the effect of stand age has been taken into account, nutrient availability and climate play a crucial role in determining the B:NPPs of woody and non-woody tissues.

Mesh bags underestimated arbuscular mycorrhizal abundance but captured fertilization effects in a mesocosm experiment
Ingrowth bags are widely used to estimate mycorrhizal growth and dynamics. However, it remains unclear to what extent they reflect the surrounding soil, and how this varies with environmental conditions.

Post-drought rewetting triggers substantial K release and shifts in leaf stoichiometry in managed and abandoned mountain grasslands
When soil is rewetted after drought, typically a transient pulse of mineralization and other microbial processes occur. This “Birch effect” translates into a temporarily elevated soil carbon dioxide efflux (SC...

Open AccessRegulation of nitrogen fixation from free-living organisms in soil and leaf litter of two tropical forests of the Guiana shield
Biological fixation of atmospheric nitrogen (N2) is the main pathway for introducing N into unmanaged ecosystems. While recent estimates suggest that free-living N fixation (FLNF) accounts for the majority of N f...

Correction to: A novel method for assessing climate change impacts in ecotron experiments
The article was published bearing a typographical error to the second author name listed. The author group regret the error and the name should be referenced and credited as Jakob Zscheischler and not the former.

Open AccessA novel method for assessing climate change impacts in ecotron experiments
Ecotron facilities allow accurate control of many environmental variables coupled with extensive monitoring of ecosystem processes. They therefore require multivariate perturbation of climate variables, close ...
