Severe warming alters biomass allocation and enhances ecosystem respiration in an alpine grassland: evidence from a short-term mesocosm experiment

This study shows that severe warming increases aboveground biomass and alters carbon fluxes in alpine grasslands, potentially shifting them from carbon sinks to sources.
