TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed a new framework that centers on the concept of progressive N limitation (PNL) for studying the interactions between C and N in terrestrial ecosystems, and examined conditions under which PNL may or may not constrain net primary production and carbon sequestration in terrestrial ecosystem.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The surprising consistency of response across diverse sites provides a benchmark to evaluate predictions of ecosystem and global models and allows us to focus on unresolved questions about carbon partitioning and retention, and spatial variation in NPP response caused by availability of other growth limiting resources.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mycorrhiza-mediated competition between plants and decomposers drives soil carbon storage
TL;DR: This finding links the functional traits of mycorrhizal fungi to carbon storage at ecosystem-to-global scales, suggesting that plant–decomposer competition for nutrients exerts a fundamental control over the terrestrial carbon cycle.
Journal ArticleDOI
Causes and consequences of resource heterogeneity in forests : interspecific variation in light transmission by canopy trees
TL;DR: The light transmission characteristics of the nine deciduous and coniferous species that dominate the transition oak–northern hardwood forests of southern New England are analyzed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Canopy tree–soil interactions within temperate forests: species effects on soil carbon and nitrogen
TL;DR: In this article, the authors quantified the carbon (C and ni- trogen (N) content of the forest floor and the top 15 cm of mineral soil and the rate of midsummer net N mineralization beneath six different tree species.
