Whole-soil warming shifts species composition without affecting diversity, biomass and productivity of the plant community in an alpine meadow

The structure and function of plant communities in alpine meadow ecosystems are potentially susceptible to climate warming. Here, we utilized a unique field manipulation experiment in an alpine meadow on the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau and investigated the responses of plant species diversity, compositi...
