Abstract: | Purpose In this study, a process-oriented biogeochemistry model, denitrification–decomposition (DNDC), was employed and adapted to
interpret and integrate the field observations that the tested ecosystem was a weak sink of atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) in 2004 but a strong source in 2005 during the growing seasons. Then we applied the model to predict long-term impacts of
climate change on carbon (C) dynamics in the semiarid grassland. |
