TL;DR: It is found that notwithstanding the clear warming that has occurred in China in recent decades, current understanding does not allow a clear assessment of the impact of anthropogenic climate change on China’s water resources and agriculture and therefore China's ability to feed its people.

TL;DR: Carbon-nitrogen interactions significantly influence the simulated response of carbon cycle to temperature and atmospheric CO2 concentration, suggesting that nutrients limitations should be included in the next generation of terrestrial biosphere models.

TL;DR: A multimethod investigation to quantify changes in vegetation green-up date from 1982 to 2010 over temperate China, and to characterize climatic controls on spring phenology showed that change in vegetationGreen- up date is more closely correlated with temperature than with precipitation, implying that precipitation is an important regulator of the response of vegetationSpring phenology to change in temperature.

TL;DR: The results suggest that current urbanization has caused deterioration of urban vegetation across most cities in China, particularly in East China, and the importance of implementing a sustainable urban development policy.

TL;DR: The results suggest that plants with high stoichiometric homoeostasis could better cope with N deposition-induced P-deficiency, and increase in phosphatase activity but not P resorption efficiency increased the supply of P.
