Effects of Increased Summer Precipitation and Nitrogen Addition on Root Decomposition in a Temperate Desert.
Climate change scenarios that include precipitation shifts and nitrogen (N) deposition are impacting carbon (C) budgets in arid ecosystems. Roots constitute an important part of the C cycle, but it is still unclear which factors control root mass loss and nutrient release in arid lands.Litterbags we...
