Evidence of current impact of climate change on life: a walk from genes to the biosphere
We review the evidence of how organisms and populations are currently responding to
climate change through phenotypic plasticity, genotypic evolution, changes in distribution …

Empirical and theoretical challenges in aboveground–belowground ecology
A growing body of evidence shows that aboveground and belowground communities and
processes are intrinsically linked, and that feedbacks between these subsystems have …

Effects of warming and grazing on soil N availability, species composition, and ANPP in an alpine meadow
Uncertainty about the effects of warming and grazing on soil nitrogen (N) availability,
species composition, and aboveground net primary production (ANPP) limits our ability to …
