Long‐Term Elevated CO2 Improves Soil Health and Rice Yields in Paddy Fields
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Combining the two longest‐running rice free‐air CO2 enrichment experiments with a global data synthesis, this study demonstrates that long‐term elevated CO2 consistently enhances soil health. In rice paddies, this improvement sustains the CO2 fertilization effect over decades.
