AbstractRising levels of atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) and nitrogen (N) deposition affect plant communities in numerous ways1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11. Nitrogen deposition causes local biodiversity loss globally12,13,14, but whether, and if so how, rising CO2 concentrations amplify or dampen those losses remains unclear and is almost entirely unstudied.

1 INTRODUCTION The impact of global change on plants can vary depending on their inherent physiological and functional differences and may be further influenced by interspecific interactions (Reich et al., 2004).

AbstractPlant diversity effects on community productivity often increase over time. Whether the strengthening of diversity effects is caused by temporal shifts in species-level overyielding (i.e., higher species-level productivity in diverse communities compared with monocultures) remains unclear.

AbstractThe determinants of fire-driven changes in soil organic carbon (SOC) across broad environmental gradients remains unclear, especially in global drylands. Here we combined datasets and field sampling of fire-manipulation experiments to evaluate where and why fire changes SOC and compared our statistical model to simulations from ecosystem models.

AbstractWarming shifts the thermal optimum of net photosynthesis (ToptA) to higher temperatures. However, our knowledge of this shift is mainly derived from seedlings grown in greenhouses under ambient atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) conditions. It is unclear whether shifts in ToptA of field-grown trees will keep pace with the temperatures predicted for the 21st century under elevated atmospheric CO2 concentrations.

AbstractFundamental axes of variation in plant traits result from trade-offs between costs and benefits of resource-use strategies at the leaf scale. However, it is unclear whether similar trade-offs propagate to the ecosystem level.

Greetings from Major General Louis B. Hershey, Director of the Selective Service System (The Draft) had arrived in the mail late in 1966, and on January 10, 1967, I was on a troop train with hundreds of other young lads tracking our way to Fort Jackson, South Carolina for Basic Training. A few weeks later, I arrived at Fort Wadsworth, Staten Island, facing another year and three quarters of my two-year, stateside tour as a soldier in the United States Army.
