A new study in Nature Communications finds that agriculture is the main driver of short-term fluctuations in atmospheric carbon. Led by Danica Lombardozzi (CSU), the research team includes Will Wieder (INSTAAR, NCAR).

For more than 40 years, scientists from the Niwot Ridge Long-Term Ecological Research program have worked to better understand high-alpine ecosystems in a warming world. Thanks to a new $7.65 million, six-year grant from the National Science Foundation, that work will continue, making Niwot Ridge LTER the longest-running NSF-funded program at CU Boulder.
