New Harvard Forest Publication: Global Warming May Increase Carbon Storage

A paper recently published by Jerry Melillo of the Marine Biological Laboratory (MBL) in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences has been making news in the past few weeks. The paper describes the results of a 7-year soil warming study at Harvard Forest, which shows that trees growing in experimentally warmed soils sequester more carbon.
