Variations of microbial biomass and hydrolase activities in purple soil under different cropping modes as affected by ginger planting
TL;DR: Ginger planting decreased the soil microbial biomass C, N and P contents significantly, and the soil urease and intervase activities under CS were higher, as compared with those under the other cropping modes.

Stimulation of terrestrial ecosystem carbon storage by nitrogen addition: a meta-analysis
TL;DR: It is suggested that N addition will increase soil C storage and plant C in both above- and below-ground parts, indicating that terrestrial ecosystems might act to strengthen as a C sink under increasing N deposition.
Litter decomposition in two subalpine forests during the freeze–thaw season
TL;DR: In this article, a field experiment using the litterbag method was conducted on the decomposition of foliar litter of two dominant species, fir (Abies faxoniana) and birch (Betula platyphylla) under their respective forests.

Snow removal alters soil microbial biomass and enzyme activity in a Tibetan alpine forest
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors demonstrate that an absence of snow cover under global warming scenarios will alter soil microbial activities and hence element biogeochemical cycling in alpine forest ecosystems, and suggest that a decreased snow cover associated with global warming may advance the timing of soil freezing and thawing as well as the peak release of nutrients, leading to an enhanced nutrient leaching before plant become active.

TL;DR: A meta-analysis of responses of AGB and the AGB of grasses and forbs to N addition across global grasslands suggests that an acceleration of N deposition will increase grassland AGB by altering species composition.
