Regional modeling of surface solar radiation, aerosol, and cloud cover spatial variability and projections over northern France and Benelux by G. Chesnoiu, I. Chiapello, N. Ferlay, P. Nabat, M. Mallet, V. Riffault

“…This decline is greatest in spring over Benelux due to combined increases in cloud cover and nitrate aerosols projected from 2050 onwards. In summer, projected decreases in cloud cover largely attenuate the reduction in SSR due to aerosols in 2050, while by 2100 rising water vapor contents counteract this attenuation. …”

Response of Soil Respiration to Grazing in an Alpine Meadow at Three Elevations in Tibet by Gang Fu, Xianzhou Zhang, Chengqun Yu, Peili Shi, Yuting Zhou, Yunlong Li, Pengwan Yang, Zhenxi Shen

“…In addition, both Rs and BGB increased with total N (TN), the ratio of SOC to TN, ammonium N (NH4+-N), and the ratio of NH4+-N to nitrate N. Our findings suggested that the negligible response of Rs to grazing could be directly attributed to that of respiration substrate and that soil N may indirectly affect Rs by its effect on BGB.…”
