Abstract
The impact of climate change in terms of altered precipitation amounts and patterns on agroecosystems of the Pannonian area is rarely studied. Even less is known to what extent different soils might alter ecosystem responses. Using a large lysimeter facility, this transdisciplinary project examines effects of a future rainfall scenario on soil water dynamics, the turnover of organic substances – the carbon and nitrogen cycle, soil biodiversity and crop and weed production on three different soil types.
- stable isotope
- nitrogen cycle
- carbon cylce
- soil microbiology
- soil fauna
