Description

Factorial experiment crossing nitrogen addition treatments with dominant species removal treatments in replicated plots to test community responses to multiple global change drivers. Includes both selective removal of dominant species and random biomass removal controls.

Typical Equipment

  • plot markers
  • urea
  • ammonium nitrate
  • glyphosate herbicide
  • paintbrush
  • clippers

Output Measurements

  • species composition
  • community structure
  • ecosystem function
