Delayed rainfall diminishes the positive response of soil respiration to warming

Grassland Research, EarlyView.
Warming stimulates soil respiration and its components, while delayed rainfall suppresses them. Crucially, delayed rainfall diminishes or even reverses the positive response of soil respiration to warming by intensifying the drought stress, and autotrophic respiration is more vulnerable than heterotrophic respiration under this interaction.

The nitrogen dilemma: Toward a novel fertilization management framework for reconciling productivity and diversity in grasslands

Grassland Research, EarlyView.
Nitrogen fertilization raises grassland productivity but steadily undermines plant diversity. Instead of applying the same rate everywhere every year, the PRISM framework is designed to rotate high‐ and low‐nitrogen paddocks across the farm over time. This spatiotemporal cycling aims to maintain farm‐scale productivity while creating periodic windows ...
