Responses of lichen communities to 18 years of natural and experimental warming
(
Oxford University Press
, 2017 , Article)
Background and Aims Climate change is expected to have major impacts on high alpine and arctic ecosystems in the future, but empirical data on the impact of long-term warming on lichen diversity and richness are sparse. ...
Short-Term Effects of Experimental Warming and Precipitation Manipulation on Soil Microbial Biomass C and N, Community Substrate Utilization Patterns and Community Composition
(
Soil Science Society of China
, 2017 , Article)
Soil microorganisms are major drivers of soil carbon (C) cycling; however, the response of these microorganisms to climate change remains unclear. In the present study, we investigated how 18 months of multifactor climate ...
Short-term herbivory has long-term consequences in warmed and ambient high Arctic tundra
(
Institute of Physics Publishing
, 2017 , Article)
Climate change is occurring across the world, with effects varying by ecosystem and region but already occurring quickly in high-latitude and high-altitude regions. Biotic interactions are important in determining ecosystem ...
