Paul Roman
Paul’s research involves understanding how carbon pools move throughout different plant communities. Specifically looking at how processes such as soil...
Ecoss researchers find that connector fungi offer new clues to fate of nitrogen in warming tundra
Like a long-distance food delivery app with no apparent highway, fungi that associate with shallow-rooted shrubs in the tundra are...
Drew Peltier
Trees are uniquely long lived, and so their responses to the environment integrate climate across multiple time scales. Peltier uses...
The inhibitory effects of nitrogen deposition on asymbiotic nitrogen fixation are divergent between a tropical and a temperate forest
Asymbiotic nitrogen (N) fixation (ANF) is an important source of N in pristine forests and is predicted to decrease with...
Snowmelt and early to mid-growing season water availability augment tree growth during rapid warming in southern Asian boreal forests
Boreal forests are facing profound changes in their growth environment, including warming-induced water deficits, extended growing seasons, accelerated snowmelt, and...
Soil water availability drives changes in community traits along a hydrothermal gradient in Loess Plateau Grasslands
Plant functional traits can be used to predict ecosystem responses to climate gradients, yet precipitation explains very little variation for...
Leaf litter traits predominantly control litter decomposition in streams worldwide
Aim Leaf litter decomposition in freshwater ecosystems is a vital process linking ecosystem nutrient cycling, energy transfer and trophic interactions....
Soil fungal communities vary with invasion by the exotic Spartina alternifolia Loisel. in coastal salt marshes of eastern China
Soil fungal communities play a critical role in ecosystem carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) cycling. Although the effect of plant...
Significant alterations in soil fungal communities along a chronosequence of Spartina alterniflora invasion in a Chinese Yellow Sea coastal wetland
Plant invasion typically alters the microbial communities of soils, which affects ecosystem carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) cycles. The responses...
Straw incorporation influences soil organic carbon sequestration, greenhouse gas emission, and crop yields in a Chinese rice (Oryza sativa L.) –wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cropping system
Crop straw management plays important roles in sustainable agriculture and environmental protection. Straw incorporation has multiple influences on soil organic...
