• Interactive effects of anthropogenic nitrogen enrichment and climate change on terrestrial and aquatic biodiversity (2013, background): “Similar findings have been reported in China (Yang et al. 2011a, b).”
• Effects of altered precipitation on insect community composition and structure in a meadow steppe (2014, background): “To date, a strong focus has been placed on changes in community dynamics as a result of climate change (Adler & Levine, 2007; Villalpando et al., 2009; Yang et al., 2011).”
• Plant functional diversity modulates global environmental change effects on grassland productivity (2018, background): “Second, increased water availability favored shallow-rooted forbs that were generally disadvantaged in dry soils (Yang et al. 2011; Xu et al. 2015), preventing their competitive exclusion by dominant grasses.”
• Nitrogen deposition and precipitation induced phylogenetic clustering of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal communities (2017, background): “The temperate grassland in northern China represents a typical arid and semi-arid region, where N and water are two key factors constraining plant productivity and associated ecosystem functioning (Yang et al., 2011).”
• The counteractive effects of nitrogen addition and watering on soil bacterial communities in a steppe ecosystem (2014, background): “Fortunately, this technique has also been found to be effective in improving the grassland plant productivity (Yang et al., 2011).”
• Responses of ammonia-oxidizing bacteria and archaea to nitrogen fertilization and precipitation increment in a typical temperate steppe in Inner Mongolia (2013, background): “This temperate steppe is a typical vegetation type in the Eurasian continent, and has been reported to be highly sensitive to the climate change (Liu et al., 2009; Niu et al., 2008; Yang et al., 2011).”
• Plant diversity represents the prevalent determinant of soil fungal community structure across temperate grasslands in northern China (2017, background): “Precipitation or water availability plays key roles in regulating ecosystem functioning, especially in arid and semiarid areas like temperate grasslands in northern China (Yang et al., 2012).”
