Altered precipitation patterns resulting from climate change will have particularly significant
consequences in water‐limited ecosystems, such as arid to semi‐arid ecosystems, where …

Precipitation changes modify C, N, and P cycles, which regulate the functions and structure
of terrestrial ecosystems. Although altered precipitation affects above‐and belowground C …

Aim Climate change intensifies the hydrological cycle and consequently alters precipitation
regimes. Accurately assessing future carbon (C) budgets depends on understanding the …

Changing precipitation regimes could have profound influences on carbon (C) cycle in the
biosphere. However, how soil C release from terrestrial ecosystems responds to changing …

Alpine ecosystems at high altitudes and latitudes are notably sensitive to climatic warming
and the Tibetan Plateau is a widely distributed alpine ecosystem. The magnitude of climatic …

Ecological succession after disturbance plays a vital role in influencing ecosystem structure
and functioning. However, how global change factors regulate ecosystem carbon (C) cycling …

Climate models suggest that extreme rainfall events will become more common with
increased atmospheric warming. Consequently, changes in the size and frequency of …

Semi‐arid ecosystems play an important role in regulating the dynamics of the global
terrestrial CO 2 sink. These dynamics are mainly driven by increasing inter‐annual …

Global warming intensifies the hydrological cycle, which results in changes in precipitation
regime (frequency and amount), and will likely have significant impacts on soil respiration (R …

Grassland ecosystems worldwide provide agricultural goods and important ecosystem
services. Productivity and other ecosystem processes in grasslands are, in most cases …
