Four-year growth dynamics of beech-spruce model ecosystems under CO2 enrichment on two different forest soils
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated how atmospheric CO2 enrichment, enhanced nutrient supply and soil quality interact to affect regrowth of temperate forests, young Fagus sylvatica and Picea abies trees were grown together in large model ecosystems and tree growth, leaf area index, fine root density and soil respiration monitored over four complete growing seasons.
Carbon sequestration in forest soils: effects of soil type, atmospheric CO2 enrichment, and N deposition
TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of CO 2 concentrations at 370 and 570 μmol CO 2 mol -1 air and increased N deposition (7 against 0.7 g N m -2 year -1 ) on the dynamics of soil organic C in two types of forest soil in model ecosystems with spruce and beech established in large open-top chambers containing an acidic loam and a calcareous sand.

Effects of elevated CO2 and soil quality on leaf gas exchange and above-ground growth in beech-spruce model ecosystems
TL;DR: The results suggest that complex interactions between CO2 , species and soil quality need to be accounted for when attempting to predict forest development in a future CO2 -rich world.

Response of a root hemiparasite to elevated CO 2 depends on host type and soil nutrients.
Diethart Matthies,Philipp Egli +1 more
TL;DR: The hypothesis that hemiparasites may influence community structure is supported and it is suggested that these effects are robust to changes in CO2 concentration.
Provenance effects and allometry in beech and spruce under elevated CO2 and nitrogen on two different forest soils
TL;DR: The study demonstrates that the soil is a major determinant of plant responses to environmental changes, and that intraspecific differences in growth-sensitivity to CO2 or N are considerable, especially on fertile soils, and in the longer term, such differences could alter genotypic composition of temperate forest communities.
