Functional Ecology, EarlyView.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Afforestation has profoundly altered soil nitrogen (N) transformation, particularly the key processes governing soil organic N and inorganic N dynamics which determine soil N availability.

Decreasing water availability reduces productivity in Swiss forests along an altitudinal gradient
Functional Ecology, EarlyView.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Forests are one of the most important terrestrial carbon sinks, but are increasingly under pressure due to drought, heat and the occurrence of extreme events. There are opposing longer term trends for European forest growth reported, and severe drought and disturbance ...

Expanding Forests but Declining Mature Coniferous Forests in Russia
, 1996 Analyses of aggregated data of the dynamics of Russian forests during the period from 1966 to 1993 have identified a rather stable development of Forested Areas (FA) and growing stock (an increase of 8% and 5%, respectively).

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Ectomycorrhizal fungi (EcMF) modulate litter decomposition and facilitate nutrient acquisition through the soil–mycorrhiza–plant pathway. Although litter chemistry has been considered an important factor affecting litter decomposition, how it regulates EcMF‐induced ...

Plant functional groups and root traits are linked to exudation rates of mature temperate trees
Functional Ecology, EarlyView.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Root exudation affects soil biogeochemistry profoundly, yet it is rarely quantified in mature, field‐grown trees and its controls are poorly understood. We measured rates of carbon (C) exudation in 11 tree species that exhibit divergent root traits, including ...

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract While fungal composition has been linked to soil carbon at global scales, these patterns are often difficult to disentangle from broad climatic gradients and species range limits. To address this constraint, we tested which aspects of ectomycorrhizal community structure
