Effects of nutrient fertilization on root decomposition and carbon accumulation in intensively managed grassland soils

Abstract Our knowledge of root mass decomposition processes has greatly benefited from studies carried out in natural and semi‐natural ecosystems. It is less known, however, how root mass loss might occur in intensively managed ecosystems, such as agricultural grasslands, which receive chronic addit...
