Vegetation composition shifts, and in particular, shrub expansion across the Arctic tundra
are some of the most important and widely observed responses of high-latitude ecosystems …

An important element of the urban environment is soil, the balanced functioning of which
largely depends on the soil microbiome. The state of the microbiome can be identified by …

The decomposition of litter carbon (C) fraction is a major determinant of soil organic matter
pool and nutrient cycling. However, knowledge of litter chemical traits regulate C fractions …

Long‐distance migrations are a striking, and strikingly successful, adaptation for highly
mobile terrestrial animals in seasonal environments. However, it remains an open question …

Climate warming and summer droughts alter soil microbial activity, affecting greenhouse gas
(GHG) emissions in Arctic and alpine regions. However, the long-term effects of warming …

Tundra soils are one of the world's largest organic carbon stores, yet this carbon is
vulnerable to accelerated decomposition as climate warming progresses. The landscape …

Climate change is rapidly warming high latitude and high elevation regions influencing plant
community composition. Changes in vegetation composition have motivated the …

It has been established by research on plant invasions that soil biota and availability of
nutrients affect the processes of alien species establishment and spread. So far, attention …

Litter decomposition represents a major path for atmospheric carbon influx into Arctic soils,
thereby controlling below‐ground carbon accumulation. Yet, little is known about how tundra …

Including information about soil microbial communities into global decomposition models is
critical for predicting and understanding how ecosystem functions may shift in response to …
