The unseen iceberg: plant roots in arctic tundra
CM Iversen, VL Sloan, PF Sullivan… - New …, 2015 - Wiley Online Library
Plant roots play a critical role in ecosystem function in arctic tundra, but root dynamics in
these ecosystems are poorly understood. To address this knowledge gap, we synthesized …

Nitrogen availability mediates soil carbon cycling response to climate warming: A meta‐analysis
Global climate warming may induce a positive feedback through increasing soil carbon (C)
release to the atmosphere. Although warming can affect both C input to and output from soil …

Responses of ecosystem carbon cycle to experimental warming: a meta‐analysis
Global warming potentially alters the terrestrial carbon (C) cycle, likely feeding back to
further climate warming. However, how the ecosystem C cycle responds and feeds back to …

Predicting soil carbon loss with warming
Crowther et al. 1 reported that the best predictor of surface soil carbon (top 10 cm) losses in
response to warming is the size of the surface carbon stock in the soil (that is, carbon stocks …

Faster nitrogen cycling and more fungal and root biomass in cold ecosystems under experimental warming: a meta‐analysis
Warming can alter the biogeochemistry and ecology of soils. These alterations can be
particularly large in high northern latitude ecosystems, which are experiencing the most …
