New research shows that the presence of solar panels in Colorado's grasslands may reduce water stress, improve soil moisture levels and -- particularly during dry years -- increase plant growth by ...

Grassland ecology is the study of all aspects of the ecology of grasslands, which are regions dominated by grass species but containing other non-woody plants and, in the case of savannahs, some ...

Soil total carbon (C) decreased after a decade of eP treatment, while plant root production decreased after 2 years. To explain this asynchrony, we found that the relative abundances of fungal genes ...

Grasses growing in the shade of a solar array were only a little less productive than those growing nearby in open grassland during years of average and above-average rainfall – but in a dry year, the ...

to analyze taxonomic and functional gene compositions of the soil microbial community after 14 years of warming (at 0.8-1.0 degrees C for 10 years and then 1.5-2.0 degrees C for 4 years) in a ...

The resources in this content pack are designed to encourage learners to explore, analyze, and discuss the importance of grassland ecosystems like the Great Plains. These resources are geared towards ...

Soil microbiology is the scientific discipline that is concerned with the study of all biological aspects of the microorganisms (bacteria, archaea, viruses, fungi, parasites and protozoa) that ...

Temperate deciduous forests are located in the mid-latitude areas which means that they are found between the polar regions and the tropics. The deciduous forest regions are exposed to warm and cold ...
