Experimental warming increased soil nitrogen sink in the Tibetan permafrost
In permafrost soil, warming regulates the nitrogen (N) cycle either by stimulating N transformation or by enhancing cryoturbation, the mixture of soil layers due to repeated freeze thaw. Here N isotopic values (N-15) of plants and the soil were investigated in a 7year warming experiment in a permafr...
