Consecutive El Niños are happening more often and the result is more devastating – new research

El Niño, a climate troublemaker, has long been one of the largest drivers of variability in the global climate. Every few years, the tropical eastern Pacific Ocean seesaws between warm (El Niño) and cold (La Niña) phases. This reshuffles rainfall patterns, unleashing floods, droughts and storms thousands of miles from the Pacific origin. The 1997-98 and 2015-16 El Niño events, for instance, brough

New article about climate change effects on soil nitrogen dynamics

A recent review article in Nutrient Cycling in Agroecosystems proposed a new conceptual model on nitrogen (N) cycle responses to elevated CO2: gross N mineralization is stimulated in N-limited ecosystems only, but not in phosphorus limited ones. Authors are BECC researchers Tobias Rütting and Louise C. Andresen. The researchers have conducted a meta-analysis on gross N transformations in free air
