Tamas Varga,Kim K. Hixson,Amir H. Ahkami,Andrew W. Sher,M. E. Barnes,Rosalie K. Chu,Anil K. Battu,Carrie D. Nicora,Tanya E. Winkler,Loren R. Reno,Sirine C. Fakra,Olga Antipova,Dilworth Y. Parkinson,Jackson R. Hall,Sharon L. Doty +14 more
TL;DR: It is found that the solubilized phosphate may react and become insoluble once inside plant tissue, suggesting that endophytes may aid in the re-release of phosphate.

TL;DR: In this paper, the relationship between atmospheric and soil temperatures, synthesize current knowledge of the physical basis of soil temperature changes and responses to anticipated warming, and review current knowledge on how warming impacts the physical and biogeochemical processes in soil.

Stream Water Chemistry in Mixed-Conifer Headwater Basins: Role of Water Sources, Seasonality, Watershed Characteristics, and Disturbances
Yang Yang,Stephen C. Hart,Emma P. McCorkle,Erin M. Stacy,M. E. Barnes,Carolyn T. Hunsaker,Dale W. Johnson,Asmeret Asefaw Berhe +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors analyzed water samples collected over 5 years from eight low-order and mixed-conifer watersheds to elucidate the temporal variation of water chemistry and evaluate their responses to prolonged drought and low-intensity forest thinning.

Impacts of climate and disturbance on nutrient fluxes and stoichiometry in mixed-conifer forests
Yang Yang,Asmeret Asefaw Berhe,Carolyn T. Hunsaker,Dale W. Johnson,Mohammad Safeeq,M. E. Barnes,Emma P. McCorkle,Erin M. Stacy,Roger C. Bales,Ryan R. Bart,Michael L. Goulden,Stephen C. Hart +11 more
TL;DR: In this article , the authors investigated the impact of climate change on stream nutrient export in California's mixed-conifer watersheds and found that stream exports of C and N in particulate forms at the transition site were twice that at the snow-dominated site, suggesting sediment-associated nutrient losses may increase with warming.

Landscape Topography and Regional Drought Alters Dust Microbiomes in the Sierra Nevada of California
Mia R. Maltz,Chelsea J. Carey,Hannah L. Freund,Jon K Botthoff,Stephen C. Hart,Jason E. Stajich,S. M. Aarons,Sarah M. Aciego,M. A. Blakowski,Nicholas C. Dove,M. E. Barnes,Nuttapon Pombubpa,Emma L. Aronson +12 more
TL;DR: In this article , the authors examined spatiotemporal variation in incoming dust microbiomes along an elevational gradient within the Sierra Nevada of California and found that dust microbial taxa richness decreased with elevation and was inversely proportional to dust heterogeneity.
