Elucidating the role of nutrient availability and mycorrhizae in the drought response of terrestrial ecosystem carbon cycling.
Abstract
This project investigates how terrestrial ecosystem functions (particularly carbon cycling) respond to environmental change (drought extremes) and how this depends on nutrient availability and mycorrhizal abundance. The fundamental research fits in the disciplines of ecosystem ecology and biogeochemistry.Researcher(s)
