Global increase in nitrogen (N) deposition influences the belowground allocation of plant
photosynthates and the formation of roots and rhizosphere-associated symbionts as well as …

Fine roots, and their functional traits, influence associated rhizosphere microorganisms via
root exudation and root litter quality. However, little information is known about their …

The resilience of forests is compromised by human‐induced environmental influences
pushing them towards tipping points and resulting in major shifts in ecosystem state that …

Background and aims Forest management towards increased carbon (C) sequestration has
repeatedly been suggested as a “natural climate solution”. We evaluated the potential of …

Biochar soil amendment may provide the forestry sector with a formidable tool to
simultaneously sequester carbon (C) in the soil and aboveground by enhancing plant …

Boreal forests store approximately 470 Pg of carbon (C) in the soil, and rates of soil C
accumulation are significantly enhanced by long-term nitrogen (N) enrichment. Dissecting …

Soil heterotrophic respiration (SHR) is important for carbon‐climate feedbacks because of its
sensitivity to soil carbon, climatic conditions and nutrient availability. However, available …

Anthropogenic nitrogen (N) enrichment in boreal forests has been shown to enhance
aboveground net primary production and downregulate soil respiration, but it is not well …

N and P are essential macronutrients for all organisms. How shifts in the availability of N or P
affect fungal communities in temperate forests is not well understood. Here, we conducted a …

Nitrogen (N) fertilization is a routine practice in boreal forests but its effects on fungal
functional guilds in Pinus sylvestris forests are still incompletely understood. Sampling is …
