“…Inconsistent results on the responses of soil C and N dynamics to climate change have been observed so far (Rustad et al 2001;Xu et al 2009;Liu et al 2010). Warming enhanced plant productivity (Chapin et al 1995;Hartley et al 1999;Jonasson et al 1999) and litter mass losses , and thus a higher flux of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere (Meentemeyer 1978;Berg et al 1993;Shaw and Harte 2001;Liski et al 2003).…”

Purpose Small but highly bioactive labile carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) pools are of great importance in controlling terrestrial C and N fluxes, whilst long-term C and N storage is determined by less labile but relatively large sizes of C and N pools. Little information is available about the effects of global warming and grazing on different forms of C and N pools in the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau of China. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of warming and grazing on the sizes of different soil labile C and N pools and N transformation in this region. Materials and methods A free-air temperature enhancement system in a controlled warming-grazing experiment had been implemented since May 2006. Infrared heaters were used to manipulate temperature, and a moderate grazing intensity was simulated by Tibetan sheep. After 3 years' warming, soil samples were taken from the four treatment plots: no warming with no grazing; no warming with grazing; warming with no grazing; and warming with grazing. Concentrations of inorganic N in the 40-cm soil profiles were measured by a flow injection analyser. Microbial biomass C (MBC) and microbial biomass N (MBN) were measured by the fumigation-extraction method, and soluble organic C (SOC) and soluble organic N (SON) were determined by high-temperature catalytic oxidation. Total N (TN), C isotope composition (δ 13 C) and N isotope Responsible editor: Weixin Cheng Electronic supplementary material The online version of this article (

“…As an important component of terrestrial ecosystems, forests are recognised as one of the most important C sinks, and soil CO 2 flux in forests has a significant effect on the atmospheric CO 2 concentration (Bond-Lamberty and Thomson, 2010;Liu et al, 2010). The global total forest area is estimated to be nearly 4 billion ha, including more than 30 million ha of bamboo forests (FAO, 2010).…”
