Abstract:Terrestrial bryophytes substantially regulate ecosystem processes in high latitude and high elevation ecosystems; however, the role of these plants in mediating soil emissions of non-CO 2 greenhouse gases (GHGs) (N 2 O and CH 4 ) in these ecosystems remains poorly understood. A removal experiment was conducted to investigate the influence of bryophytes on soil non-CO 2 GHGs emission in a subalpine coniferous forest on the eastern edge of the Tibetan Plateau. Bryophyte removal decreased the average N 2 O emissi… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
