Chronic nitrogen additions reduce total soil respiration and microbial respiration in temperate forest soils at the Harvard Forest

TL;DR: In the second year, however, respiration in the fertilized hardwood plots was not different from the control plot as discussed by the authors, and the pine stand, annual soil respiration was 21 and 25% lower, respectively, in low and high N plots than the control plots.
Journal ArticleDOI

Contributions of aboveground litter, belowground litter, and root respiration to total soil respiration in a temperate mixed hardwood forest

TL;DR: Estimating contributions by root respiration and root litter to total soil respiration is difficult owing to problems in measuring each component separately.
Journal ArticleDOI

Biogeochemical response of forest ecosystems to simulated chronic nitrogen deposition

TL;DR: The first 6 years of chronic nitrogen amendments at the Harvard Forest (Massachusetts, USA) were reported in this article, where foliar chemistry, tree growth, above and below ground, soil chemistry, nitrogen cycling (net mineralization and nitrification) and soil N20 flux responses were investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Factors controlling atmospheric methane consumption by temperate forest soils

TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of soil temperature, soil moisture, soil fertility, site fertility, and nitrogen fertilization on the consumption of atmospheric CH4 by temperate forest soils located at the Harvard Forest in Petersham, Massachusetts.
