937 GtCO2 would be removed from the atmosphere (12.4 GtCO2 yr−1 on average) from 2025 to 2100 by burying wood debris from managed forests in deep soil if its residence time is lengthened for 2,000 years and 5% CO2 removal discounted for machine operation nature.com/articles/s4156…

Elevated CO2 mediates #ectomycorrhizal #fungi species-specific decreases of native soil carbon and causes negative priming under low nutrients 📖 nph.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/np… by Carrillo et al. @WileyPlantSci #PlantScience

Fine-root dynamics in deep soil remain understudied in the context of #climate #warming 📖 nph.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/np… #Viewpoint article by Kwatcho Kengdo et al. Steve K.

The Tumber-Dávila Lab is REALLY happy to have finished with helping set-up the CLIFF experiment and doing ALL of our soil coring at the site for the summer! Been a crazy busy field season, and now we transition to working in the swamps Kudos to all REUs & trainees

Today we had our first CLIFF Fest, a potluck to celebrate the completion of the CLIFF forest edge x drought/precipitation experiment with collaborators and friends Harvard Forest Thanks Andy for bringing us all together today and at CLIFF!

🦌Tree diversity boosts tree growth, but why? This study shows: foliar chemical diversity influences tree enemies- more diverse forests have more diverse chemicals which attracts more caterpillars but better resists pathogens & deer, driving better growth buff.ly/2Vw8uO0
