CO 2 Elicits Long-Term Decline in Nitrogen Fixation
Abstract
Rising atmospheric carbon dioxide (Ca), a product of fossil fuel burning, land-use change, and cement manufacture, is expected to cause a large carbon sink in land ecosys-tems, partly mitigating human-driven climate change (1). Increasing biological nitrogen fixation with rising Ca has been invoked as a means to provide the N necessary to support C accumulation (2). As in many short-term experiments (3), we found that Ca enrichment increased N fixation during the first year of treatment in an oak woodland. However, the effect declined and disappeared by the third year. Ca enrichment consistently depressed N fixation during the 5th, 6th, and 7th years of

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
