Biogeochemical Cycling and Microbial Communities in Native Grasslands:Responses to Climate Change and Defoliation
DownloadSpring 2010
Ongoing climate change has emerged as a major scientific challenge in the current century. Grassland ecosystems are considered net carbon (C) sinks to mitigate climate change. However, they are in turn, influenced by climate change and management practices, providing feedback to climate change...

Effect of Grazing on Litter Decomposition and Extracellular Enzyme Activity across Agro-climatic Subregions in Alberta
DownloadFall 2017
Grasslands cover approximately 40% of the Earth’s terrestrial surface and provide a wide range of ecologically and economically important services such as forage production, carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) storage, and wildlife habitat. Livestock grazing is a ubiquitous use of grasslands around the...
