Comparison of in-situ methods to measure N mineralization rates in forest soils
Poster Number: 259 Presenter/Primary Author: Peter Groffman Nitrogen mineralization is a critical ecosystem process that is difficult to measure.
Soil biogeochemical processes in hydropedologic units in a northern hardwood forest
Poster Number: 258 Presenter/Primary Author: Peter Groffman As part of a hydropedologic study of a forested catchment in Hubbard Brook Experimental Forest (New Hampshire, USA), we investigated the connections between hydropedologic units and soil biogeochem
Earthworms effects on soil respiration in a sub-tropical wet forest in Puerto Rico
Poster Number: 254 Presenter/Primary Author: Grizelle Gonzalez Carbon storage, as well as other ecosystem services of soils, is an emergent property on the landscape scale that can be attributed to mechanisms occurring on scales orders of magnitude smaller.
Ecological Homogenization of Urban America
Poster Number: 249 Presenter/Primary Author: Peter Groffman Urban, suburban and exurban ecosystems are important and increasing in the U.S. An apparent, but functionally untested result of urban land use change is homogenization across cities, where n
Organic matter contribution and decomposition by ectomycorrhizal fungi in response to chronic nitrogen deposition in a temperate mixed-hardwood forest
Poster Number: 248 Presenter/Primary Author: Jesse Sadowsky Ectomycorrhizal (ECM) fungi comprise a large proportion of total soil microbial biomass, contribute belowground inputs as mycelia that may equal or surpass those of roots, and secrete enzymes that
