Abstract

Climate change could alter terrestrial ecosystems, which are important sources and sinks of the potent green‐house gases (GHGs) nitrous oxide (N 2 O) and methane (CH 4 ), in ways that either stimulate or decrease the magnitude and duration of global warming. Using manipulative field experiments, we ...
