Abstract

Abstract Plant community biomass production is co‐dependent on climatic and edaphic factors that are often covarying and non‐independent. Disentangling how these factors act in isolation is challenging, especially along large climatic gradients that can mask soil effects. As anthropogenic pressure increasingly alters local climate and soil resource supply unevenly across landscapes, our ability to predict concurrent changes in plant community processes requires clearer understandings of independent and interactive effects of climate and soil. To address this, we developed a multispecies phytometer (i.e., standardized plant community) for separating key drivers underlying plant productivity across gradients. Phytometers were composed of three globally cosmopolitan herbaceous perennials, Dactylis glomerata, Plantago lanceolata, and Trifolium pratense. In 2017, we grew phytometer communities in 18 sites across a pan‐European aridity gradient in local site soils and a standardized substrate and compared biomass production. Standard substrate phytometers succeeded in providing a standardized climate biomass response independent of local soil effects. This allowed us to factor out climate effects in local soil phytometers, establishing that nitrogen availability did not predict biomass production, while phosphorus availability exerted a strong, positive effect independent of climate. Additionally, we identified a negative relationship between biomass production and potassium and magnesium availability. Species‐specific biomass responses to the environment in the climate‐corrected biomass were asynchronous, demonstrating the importance of species interactions in vegetation responses to global change. Biomass production was co‐limited by climatic and soil drivers, with each species experiencing its own unique set of co‐limitations. Our study demonstrates the potential of phytometers for disentangling effects of climate and soil on plant biomass production and suggests an increasing role of P limitation in the temperate regions of Europe.

Abstract

Litter decomposition is a key process for carbon and nutrient cycling in terrestrial ecosystems and is mainly controlled by environmental conditions, substrate quantity and quality as well as microbial community abundance and composition. In particular, the effects of climate and atmospheric nitrogen (N) deposition on litter decomposition and its temporal dynamics are of significant importance, since their effects might change over the course of the decomposition process. Within the TeaComposition initiative, we incubated Green and Rooibos teas at 524 sites across nine biomes. We assessed how macroclimate and atmospheric inorganic N deposition under current and predicted scenarios (RCP 2.6, RCP 8.5) might affect litter mass loss measured after 3 and 12 months. Our study shows that the early to mid-term mass loss at the global scale was affected predominantly by litter quality (explaining 73% and 62% of the total variance after 3 and 12 months, respectively) followed by climate and N deposition. The effects of climate were not litter-specific and became increasingly significant as decomposition progressed, with MAP explaining 2% and MAT 4% of the variation after 12 months of incubation. The effect of N deposition was litter-specific, and significant only for 12-month decomposition of Rooibos tea at the global scale. However, in the temperate biome where atmospheric N deposition rates are relatively high, the 12-month mass loss of Green and Rooibos teas decreased significantly with increasing N deposition, explaining 9.5% and 1.1% of the variance, respectively. The expected changes in macroclimate and N deposition at the global scale by the end of this century are estimated to increase the 12-month mass loss of easily decomposable litter by 1.1–3.5% and of the more stable substrates by 3.8–10.6%, relative to current mass loss. In contrast, expected changes in atmospheric N deposition will decrease the mid-term mass loss of high-quality litter by 1.4–2.2% and that of low-quality litter by 0.9–1.5% in the temperate biome. Our results suggest that projected increases in N deposition may have the capacity to dampen the climate-driven increases in litter decomposition depending on the biome and decomposition stage of substrate.

Abstract

Soil ecosystems, and the fauna they host, are known to provide many services and communities of Collembola can be used as bioindicators of soil functionality. Climate change is often expected to threaten Collembola, however, it is possible that it could also favour them. Previous studies have shown that the structure of collembolan communities can be shaped by long-term adaptation to climate, and that temperature plays a major role in the variation of species traits. In this study, we evaluated how the functional composition and structure of collembolan communities are impacted by climate change using an experimental climate manipulation design. The study used data from the CLIMAITE experiment, which was carried out in Denmark in an unmanaged heath/grassland ecosystem that was subjected to the simulated predicted climate for the year 2075. The climate manipulation experiment parameters included elevated temperature, elevated concentration of atmospheric CO 2 and extended drought, which were tested alone and in combination on a total of 48 plots, including controls. Collembola were sampled using 10-cm-depth soil cores after 1, 2 and 8 years of climate manipulation. We posited (i) that a stimulating factor (elevated CO 2) would increase mean body length, and (ii) that an inhibiting factor (drought) would favour traits indicating a euedaphic life or an ability to present resistance mechanisms (scales, ecomorphosis) and would reduce functional structure indices through environmental filtering. The results did not support these hypotheses. While the findings showed sporadic effects of the climatic treatments on the functional composition and structure, they did not demonstrate any general community response pattern. This may be due to limitations of the study in terms of climatic intensity or community assembly, opening perspectives for future experiments in terms of the choice of traits and measurements.

Abstract

imbalance p paper contact with: Marc Estiarte, m.estiarte@creaf.uab.cat Above- and belowground carbon (C) stores of terrestrial ecosystems are vulnerable to environmental change. Ecosystem C balances in response to environmental changes have been quantified at individual sites, but the magnitudes and directions of these responses along environmental gradients remain uncertain. Here we show the responses of ecosystem C to 8-12 years of experimental drought and night-time warming across an aridity gradient spanning seven European shrublands using indices of C assimilation (aboveground net primary production: aNPP) and soil C efflux (soil respiration: Rs). The changes of aNPP and Rs in response to drought indicated that wet systems had an overall risk of increased loss of C but drier systems did not. Warming had no consistent effect on aNPP across the climate gradient, but suppressed Rs more at the drier sites. Our findings suggest that above- and belowground C fluxes can decouple, and provide no evidence of acclimation to environmental change at a decadal timescale. aNPP and Rs especially differed in their sensitivity to drought and warming, with belowground processes being more sensitive to environmental change.
