Environmental sensor networks offer a powerful combination of distributed sensing capacity,
real‐time data visualization and analysis, and integration with adjacent networks and remote …

The loss of organic and inorganic carbon from roots into soil underpins nearly all the major
changes that occur in the rhizosphere. In this review we explore the mechanistic basis of …

Background Wetlands store a substantial amount of carbon (C) in deep soil organic matter
deposits, and play an important role in global fluxes of carbon dioxide and methane. Fine …

We evaluated the effects of grazing on C and N belowground pools by comparing 15
grazing‐exclosure pairs across the Río de la Plata grasslands of Uruguay and Argentina …

Livestock grazing is one of the most important factors influencing the above-ground
community composition and structure in a natural grassland ecosystem. Different grazing …

Background and aims Root functional traits are determinants of soil carbon storage; plant
productivity; and ecosystem properties. However, few studies look at both annual and …

Background and aims Grazing can affect the stock and flow of C between above and below-
ground vegetation layers. Components of below-ground stratum are one of the less studied …

Herbivore grazing has major effects on soil nutrient dynamics in a variety of grassland
ecosystems. Previous studies have examined how large herbivores as a group affect …

European mountain grasslands are increasingly affected by land-use changes and climate,
which have been suggested to exert important controls on grassland carbon (C) and …

Due to the region's social economy and historical culture, rough grazing has led to
unresolved grassland-based ecological problems in Northern China. Soil microorganisms …
