Soil respiration (Rs), the soil‐to‐atmosphere flux of CO2, is a dominant but uncertain part of
the carbon cycle, even after decades of study. This review focuses on progress in …

There is increasing evidence that spatial and temporal dynamics of biodiversity and
ecosystem functions play an essential role in biodiversity–ecosystem‐functioning (BEF) …

As drought-induced tree defoliation and mortality (ie tree decline) in the Mediterranean is
expected to worsen with ongoing climate change, it is of paramount importance to …

Abstract Long-term (2009–2019) field studies of the CO 2 fluxes over the Valday upland in
north-western European Russia were performed in an old-growth spruce-dominated forest …

The still significant uncertainties associated with the future capacity of terrestrial systems to
mitigate climate change are linked to the lack of knowledge of the biotic and abiotic …

The extent to which the increasingly frequent episodes of drought-induced tree decline and
mortality could alter key soil biogeochemical cycles is unclear. Understanding this …

The application of sewage sludge (SS) to agricultural soil can help meet crop nutrient
requirements and enhance soil properties, while reusing an organic by-product. However …

Worldwide increases in droughts-and heat-waves-associated tree mortality events are
destabilizing the future of many forests and the ecosystem services they provide. Along with …

Dehesas, human-shaped savannah-like ecosystems, where the overstorey is mainly
dominated by the evergreen holm oak (Quercus ilex L. subsp. ballota (Desf.) Samp.), are …

Despite the sharply growing interest in the disturbances occurring in primary forests, little is
known about the response of European virgin forests to anthropogenic disturbance. The …
