(Springer, 2020-06-30)
      Understanding the drivers of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions is one of the most critical global environmental challenges to mitigate the increasing global temperature. Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions are highly variable in ...
    • Environmental factors regulate soilmicrobial attributes and their response to drought in rangeland ecosystems 

      Toledo, Santiago; Bondaruk, Viviana F.; Yahdjian, Laura; Oñatibia, Gastón Rafael; Loydi, Alejandro; Alberti, Juan; Bruschetti, Martín; Pascual, Jesús; Peter, Guadalupe; Agüero, Walter Damian; Namur, Pedro Ramón; Blanco, Lisandro Javier; Peri, Pablo Luis (Elsevier, 2023-09)
      In ecosystems, soil microbial variables characterization are used to determine soil biological health and the response of soils to environmental stress. Although there are strong associations between plants and soil ...
    • Extreme drought impacts have been underestimated in grasslands and shrublands globally 

      Smith, Melinda D.; Wilkins, Kate D.; Holdrege, Martin C.; Wilfahrt, Peter A.; Collins, Scott L.; Knapp, Alan K.; Sala, Osvaldo E.; Dukes, Jeffrey S.; Phillips, Richard P.; Yahdjian, Laura; Peri, Pablo Luis; Zuo, Xiaoan (National Academy of Sciences (Estados Unidos), 2024-01-08)
      Climate change is increasing the frequency and severity of short-term (~1 y) drought events—the most common duration of drought—globally. Yet the impact of this intensification of drought on ecosystem functioning remains ...
    • Forage provision is more affected by droughts in arid and semi-arid than in mesic rangelands 

      Bondaruk, Viviana F.; Oñatibia, Gastón Rafael; Fernández, Roberto J.; Agüero, Walter Damian; Blanco, Lisandro Javier; Bruschetti, Martín; Kröpfl, Alicia; Loydi, Alejandro; Pascual, Jesús; Peri, Pablo Luis; Peter, Guadalupe; Quiroga, Raul Emiliano; Yahdjian, Laura (Wiley, 2022-06)
      Droughts are projected to increase in magnitude, frequency and duration in the near future. In rangelands, the provision of valuable ecosystem services such as forage supply for livestock productivity is intimately linked ...
    • Higher than expected N2O emissions from soybean crops in the Pampas Region of Argentina: Estimates from DayCent simulations and field measurements 

      Della Chiesa, Tomas; Piñeiro, Gervasio; Del Grosso, Stephen J.; Parton, William J.; Araujo, Patricia Ines; Yahdjian, Laura (Elsevier, 2022-08)
      In developing countries, agriculture generally represents a large fraction of GHG emissions reported in National Inventories, and emissions are typically estimated using Tier 1 IPCC guidelines. However, field data and ...
    • Microbial processing of plant remains is co‐limited by multiple nutrients in global grasslands 

      Ochoa-Hueso, Raúl; Borer, Elizabeth T.; Seabloom, Eric William; Hobbie, Sarah E.; Risch, Anita C.; Collins, Scott L.; Alberti, Juan; Bahamonde, Héctor Alejandro; Brown, Cynthia S.; Caldeira, Maria C.; Daleo, Pedro; Dickman, Chris R.; Ebeling, Anne; Eisenhauer, Nico; Esch, Ellen H.; Eskelinen, Anu; Fernández, Victoria; Güsewell, Sabine; Gutierrez-Larruga, Blanca; Hofmockel, Kirsten; Laungani, Ramesh; Lind, Eric M.; López, Andrea; McCulley, Rebecca L.; Moore, Joslin L.; Peri, Pablo Luis; Power, Sally A.; Price, Jodi N.; Prober, Suzanne M.; Roscher, Christiane; Sarneel, Judith M.; Schütz, Martin; Siebert, Julia; Standish, Rachel J.; Velasco Ayuso, Sergio; Virtanen, Risto; Wardle, Glenda M.; Wiehl, Georg; Yahdjian, Laura; Zamin, Tara (Wiley, 2020-06)
      Microbial processing of aggregate‐unprotected organic matter inputs is key for soil fertility, long‐term ecosystem carbon and nutrient sequestration and sustainable agriculture. We investigated the effects of adding multiple ...
    • The positive effect of plant diversity on soil carbon depends on climate
