The biome concept organizes large-scale ecological variation. Terrestrial biomes are distinguished primarily by their predominant vegetation, and are mainly determined by temperature and rainfall.

A new study has investigated how the relationship between mean annual precipitation (MAP) and grassland biomass changes when one or more nutrients are added. The authors show that precipitation ...

Investigating how grassland responds to global changes, particularly, to changed rainfall patterns and their interactions with other global change factors (GCF) is the focus of an IGS team led by ...

A slow-moving weather pattern stalled over the area, swelling playa lakes and rivers, but the city said upgrades helped ...

Interactions among nutrients govern the global grassland biomass–precipitation relationship. Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences , 2025; 122 (15) DOI: 10.1073/pnas.2410748122 Cite ...
