TL;DR: In this article, the authors suggest that model structures should reflect real-world processes, parameters should be calibrated to match model outputs with observations, and external forcing variables should accurately prescribe the environmental conditions that soils experience.
Journal ArticleDOI
Multiple models and experiments underscore large uncertainty in soil carbon dynamics

Schimel,Jinyun Tang,Aimée T. Classen +24 more
TL;DR: In this article, a synthesis of 147 field manipulation experiments and five organic carbon (SOC) models with different representations of microbial and mineral processes was used to test process-based microbemineral SOC models.
Journal ArticleDOI
Faster nitrogen cycling and more fungal and root biomass in cold ecosystems under experimental warming: a meta-analysis.
Alejandro Salazar,Kathrin Rousk,Ingibjörg S. Jónsdóttir,Jean-Philippe Bellenger,Ólafur S. Andrésson +4 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that warming in cold ecosystems increases N mineralization rates and N2O emissions and does not affect N fixation, at least not in a consistent way across biomes and conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI
The ecology of peace: preparing Colombia for new political and planetary climates

TL;DR: The results of the 2016 INTERCAMBIO Conference on AtMosphere-BIOsphere Interactions were published in this article, which was held in Medellin, Colombia.
Journal ArticleDOI
Microbial dormancy promotes microbial biomass and respiration across pulses of drying-wetting stress
TL;DR: Ignoring both the capacity of microbes to enter and exit dormancy in response to the environment and the consequences of these metabolic responses for soil C cycling results in predictions of unrealistically low RH under warming and drying-wetting cycles.
