Carbon conundrum on the tundra

Article Abstract:

A vast amount of carbon is locked into soils at northern high latitudes. It is demonstrated that long-term fertilization results in net carbon loss from the tundra eco system due to increased decomposition of soil organic matter. The findings suggest that increase in aboveground carbon storage through woody-plant encroachment may be offset by losses of soil carbon.

Lessons from a distant monsoon

Article Abstract:

A study is presented on the past climate change in Indonesia which gives a deeper understanding of pivotal climatological influences of Asian monsoon. Results indicate that the Asian monsoon trumps El Nino/Southern Oscillation (ENSO) and generates prolonged droughts in Indonesia through its influence on the Indian Ocean Dipole.
