N deposition is one of the important factors affecting the global change. Research shows that the N deposition will increase continually in the coming decades. By simulation of N deposition experim...

Freeze-thaw cycle is ubiquitous phenomenon at high elevations and temperate zone. On North-hemisphere, 55% terrestrial area experienced seasonal freeze-thaw cycles.

Ongoing global environmental variations have triggered productive research aiming to explore the changes in ecosystem functions.

Soil organic matter is one of the important carbon pools in terrestrial ecosystem. Its tiny change may alter the variation in the concentration of greenhouse gases and then the temperature of earth...

As the main part of terrestrial biosphere, forest ecosystems play an important role for the global regulation of carbon, a substantialportion of which is maintained in above-ground biomass. Yet, it...
