  • Soil organic carbon response to six years of warming : assessing the impacts of altered diurnal temperature range

    Creator:
    Murphey, Virginia L. W.
    Abstract:
    There is a growing consensus that anthropogenic warming will impact soil organic matter (SOM). Globally, soil contains 2-3 times more carbon (C) than plants, and like plants, temperature induced change of SOM could have significant climate repercussions. Although, the majority of warming experiments have increased day and night temperatures equally,...
