Ericoid shrub encroachment shifts aboveground–belowground linkages in three peatlands across Europe and Western Siberia

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology, Volume 29, Issue 23, Page 6772-6793, December 2023., 2023
Our findings illustrate mechanisms by which plants influence ecosystem responses to climate change, through their effect on microbial trophic interactions. The increase in ericaceous shrubs is marked by higher phenol concentration, DOC and TN in pore water.
