Priming effect (PE) induced by inputs of fresh carbon plays crucial roles in soil organic
matter decomposition and terrestrial carbon cycling. Priming effect is considered to be …

We introduce and provide a new data-set of species-specific ecological indicator values
(alternative 'Ellenberg values' for climatic variables, light, moisture, soil reaction/pH, salinity …

The ecological indicator values are the most common and sufficiently effective method of
habitat assessment. The aim of our research review is to analyze current studies from 2020 …

Droughts can strongly affect grassland productivity and biodiversity, but responses differ
widely. Nutrient availability may be a critical factor explaining this variation, but is often …

Abstract Knowledge of nutrient traits, especially carbon (C), nitrogen (N), and phosphorus
(P), is essential for understanding the biogeochemical cycle and ecosystem functioning …

Fertilisation experiments have demonstrated that nutrient availability is a key determinant of
biomass production and carbon sequestration in grasslands. However, the influence of …

Cultivated land plays a vital role in human survival and the development of human
civilization. The cultivated land quality (CLQ) is of considerable significance for ensuring …

Rhizosphere effects play crucial roles in determining soil carbon (C) and nitrogen (N)
cycling. However, the rhizosphere effect on soil gross nitrogen (N) mineralization (Nmin) has …

Responses of the terrestrial biosphere to rapidly changing environmental conditions are a
major source of uncertainty in climate projections. In an effort to reduce this uncertainty, a …

Global change influences plant growth by affecting plant morphology and physiology.
However, the effects of global change factors vary based on the climate gradient. Here, we …
