Linking surface processes, solute generation, and CO2 budgets across lithological and land cover gradients in Rocky Mountain watersheds

Abstract Chemical weathering in mountain critical zones controls river chemistry and regulates long‐term climate. Mountain landscapes contain diverse landforms created by geomorphic processes, including landslides, glacial moraines, and rock glaciers. These landforms generate unique flowpaths and wa

Increased temperature and CO2 induce plasticity and impose novel selection on plant traits

Climate change is simultaneously increasing atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations ([CO2]) and temperatures. We conducted a multi-factorial growth chamber experiment to examine how these climate change factors interact to influence the expression of ecologically relevant morphological and phenolo

The impact of warming on peak-season ecosystem carbon uptake is influenced by dominant species in warmer sites

Climatic warming affects ecosystem-scale carbon fluxes directly through its impact on photosynthesis and respiration, and indirectly by altering the plant community. This study reports on a 10-year factorial warming and dominant plant species removal experiment, conducted in a high- and a low-elevat

Surface Ocean CO2 Atlas Database Version 2025 (SOCATv2025) (NCEI Accession 0304549)

The ocean absorbs one quarter of the global CO2 emissions from human activity. The community-led Surface Ocean CO2 Atlas (www.socat.info) is key for the quantification of ocean CO2 uptake and its variation, now and in the future. SOCAT version 2025 has quality-controlled in situ surface ocean fCO2 (

Elevated [CO2] and temperature augment gas exchange and shift the fitness landscape in a montane forb

Climate change is simultaneously increasing carbon dioxide concentrations ([CO 2 ]) and temperature. These factors could interact to influence plant physiology and performance. Alternatively, increased [CO 2 ] may offset costs associated with elevated temperatures. Furthermore, the interaction betwe

Interannual precipitation controls on soil CO2 fluxes in high elevation conifer and aspen forests

Long-term soil CO2 emission measurements are necessary for detecting trends and interannual variability in the terrestrial carbon cycle. Such records are becoming increasingly valuable as ecosystems experience altered environmental conditions associated with climate change. From 2013 to 2021, we con

Improving predictions of stream CO2 concentrations and fluxes using a stream network model: A case study in the East River watershed, CO, USA

Abstract Inland waters are an important component of the global carbon budget. However, our ability to predict carbon fluxes from stream systems remains uncertain, as p CO 2 varies within streams at scales of 1–100 m. This makes direct monitoring of large‐scale CO 2 fluxes impractical. We incorporat

The Impact of Warming and Species Removal on Soil Respiration at Low and High Elevations

Warming temperatures are altering ecosystems, including the plants and soil communities that regulate the carbon cycle. Warming can directly alter the carbon cycle by altering plant and soil community respiration; however, altering plant communities can also have impacts on the carbon cycle. The dom
