Journal ArticleDOI

Fine root architecture of nine north american trees

TL;DR: These findings run contrary to the common idea that all roots of a given size class function the same way and that a common size class for fine roots works well for all species.
Journal ArticleDOI

Quantifying global soil carbon losses in response to warming

Thomas W. Crowther, +52 more
- 01 Dec 2016 - 
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a comprehensive analysis of warming-induced changes in soil carbon stocks by assembling data from 49 field experiments located across North America, Europe and Asia, and provide estimates of soil carbon sensitivity to warming that may help to constrain Earth system model projections.
Journal ArticleDOI

Responses of tree fine roots to temperature

TL;DR: It is hypothesized that root growth and root respiration are tightly linked to whole-canopy assimilation through complex source–sink relationships within the plant, even though it is well known that multiple growth-limiting resources change simultaneously through time during a typical growing season.
Journal ArticleDOI

Soil warming, carbon–nitrogen interactions, and forest carbon budgets

TL;DR: Although soil warming has resulted in a cumulative net loss of carbon from a New England forest relative to a control area over the 7-y study, the annual net losses generally decreased over time as plant carbon storage increased.
Journal ArticleDOI

Target selection for the apache point observatory galactic evolution experiment (apogee)

TL;DR: The Apache Point Observatory Galactic Evolution Experiment (APOGEE) is a high-resolution infrared spectroscopic survey spanning all Galactic environments (i.e., bulge, disk, and halo), with the principal goal of constraining dynamical and chemical evolution models of the Milky Way as discussed by the authors.
