Journal ArticleDOI
Nitrogen limitation constrains sustainability of ecosystem response to CO2
Peter B. Reich,Sarah E. Hobbie,Tali D. Lee,David S. Ellsworth,Jason B. West,David Tilman,Johannes M. H. Knops,Shahid Naeem,Jared J. Trost +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a six-year field study of perennial grassland species grown under ambient and elevated levels of CO2 and nitrogen (N) and showed that low availability of N progressively suppresses the positive response of plant biomass to elevated CO2.
Journal ArticleDOI
Molecular Paleohydrology: Interpreting the Hydrogen-Isotopic Composition of Lipid Biomarkers from Photosynthesizing Organisms
Dirk Sachse,Isabelle Billault,Gabriel J. Bowen,Yoshito Chikaraishi,Todd E. Dawson,Sarah J. Feakins,Katherine H. Freeman,Clayton R. Magill,Francesca A. McInerney,Marcel T J van der Meer,Pratigya J. Polissar,Richard J. Robins,Julian P. Sachs,Hanns Ludwig Schmidt,Alex L. Sessions,James W. C. White,Jason B. West,Ansgar Kahmen +17 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors review the factors and processes that are known to influence the hydrogen-isotopic compositions of lipids from photosynthesizing organisms, and provide a framework for interpreting their D/H ratios from ancient sediments and identify future research opportunities.
Journal ArticleDOI
Stable isotopes as one of nature's ecological recorders
TL;DR: Key short-, medium- and long-term recording capacities of stable isotopes that are currently being applied to ecological questions are reviewed.
BookDOI
Isoscapes: Understanding movement, pattern, and process on earth through isotope mapping
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a framework for the incorporation of isotopes and isoscapes in Geospatial Forensic Investigations (GFI), which is based on the d13C isoscape for primates.
Journal ArticleDOI

McInerney,Niels C. Munksgaard,Niels C. Munksgaard,Kevin A. Simonin,Xin Song,Hilary Stuart-Williams,Jason B. West,Graham D. Farquhar +17 more
TL;DR: The current state of knowledge of stable isotope enrichment of leaf water, and its relevance for isotopic signals incorporated into plant organic matter and atmospheric gases is reviewed.
