Drought and warming induced changes in P and K concentration and accumulation in plant biomass and soil in a Mediterranean shrubland (2008, methodology): “In 1999 and 2005, biomass per plot was estimated by means of the pin point method as described by Peñuelas et al. (2007).”
Effects of long-term experimental night-time warming and drought on photosynthesis, Fv/Fm and stomatal conductance in the dominant species of a Mediterranean shrubland (2009, background): “…the effects of changing climate conditions on photosynthetic plant performance; however, very few have done so experimentally in the field, with a non-disturbing experimental system, and during medium to long-term studies encompassing several years (Beier et al. 2004; Peñuelas et al. 2007).”
Ecological effects of extreme drought on Californian herbaceous plant communities (2016, background): “These results support other drought studies documenting decreases in species richness (Tilman and El Haddi 1992, Penuelas et al. 2007), plant biomass (Knapp et al. 2015), and/or primary productivity (Ciais et al. 2005) with drought, as well as with the strongest and most consistent patterns seen in…”
Drought‐resistant fungi control soil organic matter decomposition and its response to temperature (2011, background): “…soil biogeochemical attributes [total organic carbon (TOC)] were studied seasonally at two Mediterranean sites where precipitation exclusion has been taking place during the last 10 years, reducing soil moisture up to 20% with respect to controls (Ogaya & Peñuelas, 2007; Peñuelas et al., 2007).”
The Role of Plant Litter in Driving Plant-Soil Feedbacks (2019, background): “…may have a strong affinity for plant litter types from the plant with which they are associated (Austin et al., 2014; Palozzi and Lindo, 2018), resulting in accelerated litter breakdown (Freschet et al., 2012a; Veen et al., 2015) and plant-specific patterns of nutrient release (Perez et al., 2013).”
Reduced N cycling in response to elevated CO2, warming, and drought in a Danish heathland: Synthesizing results of the CLIMAITE project after two years of treatments (2010, background): “They may also act indirectly e.g. through impacts on species composition (Penuelas et al., 2007).”
