Mountainous rangelands provide key ecosystem goods and services, particularly for human
benefit. In spite of these benefits, mountain grasslands are undergoing extensive land-cover …

High‐mountain areas provide excellent opportunities to study the effects of combined abiotic
stresses on plant physiology given their variety of steep ecological gradients, low …

Soil microbes are directly involved in soil organic carbon (SOC) decomposition, yet the
importance of microbial biodiversity in regulating the temperature sensitivity of SOC …

Soil net nitrogen (N) mineralization (Nmin) is a pivotal process in the global N cycle
regulating the N availability of plant growth. Understanding the spatial patterns of Nmin, its …

Abstract Knowledge about global patterns of the decomposition kinetics of distinct soil
organic matter (SOM) pools is crucial to robust estimates of land-atmosphere carbon fluxes …

Understanding the temperature sensitivity (Q10) of soil organic C (SOC) decomposition is
critical to quantifying the climate–carbon cycle feedback and predicting the response of …

Our knowledge of fundamental drivers of the temperature sensitivity (Q10) of soil carbon
dioxide (CO2) release is crucial for improving the predictability of soil carbon dynamics in …

Mollisols contain high amounts of soil organic carbon (SOC), which is highly susceptible to
climate change; thus, climate change could indirectly influence soil aggregate stability, but …

The soil microbial community is a key indicator to evaluate the effectiveness of vegetation
restoration in degraded ecosystems. However, few studies have simultaneously compared …

How to assess the temperature sensitivity (Q10) of soil organic matter (SOM) decomposition
and its regional variation with high accuracy is one of the largest uncertainties in …
