Cedar Creek ESR , the last round of soil respiration menasument was done this growing season in 24 old fields with a huge help frm Aden! Let’s analysize the data in the next couple of weeks!





Our new NatureClimate paper shows where and why fire changes soil carbon and demonstrates sensitivity rises with aridity. The carbon sequestration potential in savanna soils speaks to the need for their preservation, and not their replacement by forests. nature.com/articles/s4155…

Anthropogenic eutrophication is a driver of plant community shifts in many grassland ecosystems. Chen et al. use data from a global experiment to assess how nutrient addition affects grassland ecological stability. Shaopeng Wang Nutrient Network nature.com/articles/s4146…

A new study shows that #Soil #Carbon content is positively related with plant diversity in global Nutrient Network grassland sites, particularly strongly in warm & arid climates. Plant diversity is related to #SoilCarbon via the quality of organic matter.

Such a cool team of people to work with. My first 1st-author publication is at the intersection of art & ecology! Thank you Dr. Jeannine Cavender-Bares Cedar Creek ESR UMN CBS for supporting me in this!

Rodents live among us, and share many of our diseases. Researchers at UMN College Veterinary Medicine and UMN CBS teamed up with Cedar Creek ESR, Itasca Biological Station & Labs, and Bell Museum to determine how a mouse’s environment might change the pathogens they carry.
