Predicting tip** points of vegetation resilience as a response to precipitation: Implications for understanding impacts of climate change in India
Although the impacts of climate change are long-term in nature, the transformation in climate regime can lead to an ecosystem change from one stable...

Phenotypic Plasticity of Two Stipa in Grassland Responses to Elevated CO2 and Precipitation Change
AbstractElevated atmospheric CO 2 concentration and precipitation change affect plants’ survival and thriving. Phenotypic plasticity can show plants...

Increased precipitation rather than warming increases ecosystem multifunctionality in an alpine meadow
BackgroundsClimate change is well-known to alter the structure and function of grassland ecosystems, and multifunctionality contributes to a...

Precipitation and plant functional composition mediate desert canopy nutrient responses to water and nitrogen addition
Background and aimsPlant nutrients play a fundamental role in regulating ecosystem functioning and are sensitive to global changes such as...

Spatial Analysis of Precipitation Climatology Over India: Using Satellite Remote Sensor
Precipitation is one of the important components of the global hydrological process. The emerging consequence of global change indicates variations...

Consistent but Delayed Timing of Precipitation Affects Community Composition of Prairie Pothole Birds and Aquatic Macroinvertebrates, but not Wetland Plants
The hydroperiod (i.e., the length of time ponded water is present) of prairie potholes is sensitive to climate change. Because snowmelt runoff is the...

Precipitation Drives Soil Protist Diversity and Community Structure in Dry Grasslands
Protists are essential components of soil microbial communities, mediating nutrient cycling and ecosystem functions in terrestrial ecosystems....

Fungal Communities Are More Sensitive to the Simulated Environmental Changes than Bacterial Communities in a Subtropical Forest: the Single and Interactive Effects of Nitrogen Addition and Precipitation Seasonality Change
Increased nitrogen deposition (N factor) and changes in precipitation patterns (W factor) can greatly impact soil microbial communities in...
-
Earlier fall precipitation increases the competitive advantage of non-native plant communities in a desert ecosystem
Climate change is likely to influence competitive interactions between native and non-native plant species by altering soil resource availability....

Differential response of graminoid and forb species to precipitation variability in a constructed dry tropical grassland
Precipitation and temperature are the two major drivers of species distribution on the earth. Change in precipitation has severe effects on the...

Solvent-Induced Protein Precipitation for Drug Target Discovery
Traditional chemical proteomics approaches for screening drug targets usually require the immobilization/modification of the drug molecules to pull...

Direct and indirect effects of precipitation change and nutrients addition on desert steppe productivity in Inner Mongolia, northern China
Background and AimsGlobal changes (precipitation changes and nutrient deposition) profoundly impact structure and function of steppe ecosystem....

Reduced precipitation lessens the scaling of growth to plant N in mesic grasslands
Grassland production is sensitive to both precipitation and plant N accumulation and utilization, such that change in one variable influences...

Precipitation and local adaptation drive spatiotemporal variations of aboveground biomass and species richness in Tibetan alpine grasslands
The Tibetan Plateau contains the highest and largest alpine pasture in the world, which is adapted to the cold and arid climate. It is challenging...

Climate limits vegetation green-up more than slope, soil erodibility, and immediate precipitation following high-severity wildfire
BackgroundIn the southwestern United States, post-fire vegetation recovery is increasingly variable in forest burned at high severity. Many factors,...

Warming in combination with increased precipitation mediate the sexual and clonal reproduction in the desert steppe dominant species Stipa breviflora
BackgroundClonal plants can successfully adapt to various ecosystems. A trade-off between sexual and clonal reproduction is generally assumed in...
