| Title | Global change accelerates carbon assimilation by a wetland ecosystem engineer |
| Creator | Caplan, Joshua S. Hager, Rachel Nia Megonigal, J. Patrick Mozdzer, Thomas J. |
| Description | The primary productivity of coastal wetlands is changing dramatically in response to rising atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) concentrations, nitrogen (N) enrichment, and invasions by novel species, potentially altering their ecosystem services and resilience to sea level rise. In order to determine how these interacting global change factors will affect coastal wetland productivity, we quantified growing-season carbon assimilation (≈gross primary productivity, or GPP) and carbon retained in... |
