When plants breathe in carbon from the atmosphere and store it in their leaves, branches, trunks and roots, they help the Earth maintain a carbon balance—a crucial component to a steady climate. While ...
The vitality of grassland ecosystems, central to the global carbon cycle and nutrient exchange, is often gauged by their aboveground biomass (AGB). Variations in AGB reflect grassland productivity and ...
The effects of grazing and climate change on primary production have been studied widely, but seldom with mechanistic models. We used a Bayesian model to examine the effects of extreme weather and the ...
