Jerry M. Melillo,Paul A. Steudler,John D. Aber,K. Newkirk,H. Lux,F. P. Bowles,C. Catricala,A. Magill,Toby Ahrens,S. Morrisseau +9 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a decade-long soil warming experiment in a mid-latitude hardwood forest, documented changes in soil carbon and nitrogen cycling in order to investigate the consequences of these changes for the climate system, and showed that whereas soil warming accelerates soil organic matter decay and carbon dioxide fluxes to the atmosphere, this response is small and short-lived for a midlatitude forest, because of the limited size of the labile soil carbon pool.
Journal ArticleDOI
Balancing the Global Carbon Budget
TL;DR: The recent past may be insufficient for prediction, however, as feedbacks between the carbon cycle and climate become more prominent as mentioned in this paper, leading to more accurate predictions of future concentrations of CO2 and more accurate prediction of the rate and extent of climate change.

TL;DR: Temperate and boreal forest ecosystems contain a large part of the carbon stored on land, in the form of both biomass and soil organic matter, which will change with increasing atmospheric [CO2], increasing temperature, elevated nitrogen deposition and intensified management.

Responses of forest trees to single and multiple environmental stresses from seedlings to mature plants: Past stress history, stress interactions, tolerance and acclimation
TL;DR: In this article, a review of tree physiological responses to key environmental stress factors and their combinations are analyzed from seedlings to mature trees, concluding that combined stresses can influence survival of large trees even more than chronic exposure to a single predictable stress such as drought.

TL;DR: For the purposes of this discussion, temperate forest is regarded as occurring in broad latitudinal bands between the taiga towards the poles and the mediterranean flora towards the equator.

Leaf Area and Above- and Belowground Growth Responses of Loblolly Pine to Nutrient and Water Additions
TL;DR: A 2 x 2 nutrient and water factorial experiment with four replications was installed in an 8-yr-old stand of Ioblolly pine growing on an infertile, excessively drained sandy site in Scotland County, North Carolina, and observed an increase in stem volume growth efficiency.

Nitrogen in Terrestrial Ecosystems: Questions of Productivity, Vegetational Changes, and Ecosystem Stability
TL;DR: In this article, the authors have discussed local and global changes in nitrogen in both undisturbed and disturbed conditions and described environmental changes caused by pollution from nitrogenous compounds and changes in landuse.
