Enhanced gross primary production and evapotranspiration in juniper‐encroached grasslands

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology, 2018
AbstractWoody plant encroachment (WPE) into grasslands has been occurring globally and may be accelerated by climate change in the future. This land cover change is expected to alter the carbon and water cycles, but it remains uncertain how and to what extent the carbon and water cycles may change with WPE into grasslands under current climate. In this
