  • Do tradeoffs govern plant species responses to different global change treatments? 
    Langley, J. Adam; Grman, Emily; Wilcox, Kevin R.; Avolio, Meghan L.; Komatsu, Kimberly J.; Collins, Scott L.; Koerner, Sally E.; Smith, Melinda D.; Baldwin, Andrew H.; Bowman, William; Chiariello, Nona; Eskelinen, Anu; Harmens, Harry; Hovenden, Mark; Klanderud, Kari; McCulley, Rebecca L.; Onipchenko, Vladimir G.; Robinson, Clare H.; Suding, Katharine N.
