The terrestrial carbon (C) cycle has received increasing interest over the past few decades,
however, there is still a lack of understanding of the fate of newly assimilated C allocated …

The physical avoidance of overwinter damage is important for determining the success of
herbaceous perennial plants in climates with cold winters. Exposure to damaging frost can …

Wetlands cover a small portion of the world, but have disproportionate influence on global
carbon (C) sequestration, carbon dioxide and methane emissions, and aquatic C fluxes …

Wetland restoration can mitigate aerobic decomposition of subsided organic soils, as well as
re-establish conditions favorable for carbon storage. Rates of carbon storage result from the …

Perennial herbaceous plants in seasonal temperate climates must form belowground
storage organs to contain carbohydrates for seasonal regrowth and to mitigate disturbance …

Abstract Background and Aims Although the plant economic spectrum seeks to explain
resource allocation strategies, carbohydrate storage is often omitted. Belowground storage …
