Limited Effect of Future Land‐Use Changes on Human Heat Stress and Labor Capacity by Steven J. DeHertog, Anton Orlov, Felix Havermann, Suqi Guo, Iris Manola, Julia Pongratz, Quentin Lejeune, Carl‐Friedrich Schleussner, Inga Menke, Florian Humpenöder, Alexander Popp, Peter Lawrence, George C. Hurtt, Louise Chini, Inne Vanderkelen, Edouard L. Davin, Thomas Reerink, Sonia I. Seneviratne, Hans Verbeeck, Wim Thiery

“…However, the effects of future land‐use change on climate are often not considered when quantifying the climate‐induced impacts on human heat stress and labor capacity. By conducting simulations with three fully coupled Earth System Models, we project the effects of land‐use change on heat stress and outdoor labor capacity for two contrasting future land‐use scenarios under high‐ambition mitigation. …”

Soil total carbon as a key factor affects soil biota attributes in plant mixtures over time: A meta-analysis by Huiling Zhang, Jinshan Cai, Xu Yang, Jing Huang, Xuan Zhou, Dima Chen

“…However, the potential mechanisms that regulate soil biota (microbes and fauna) attributes (biomass, activity, and abundance) to plant mixtures over experimental time are still unclear. By conducting 1594 paired observations of the impacts of plant mixture on soil biota attributes and its corresponding potential drivers from 179 studies, we found that plant above- and belowground biomass and total biomass were significantly increased by 35.0%, 52.9%, and 48.6% under plant mixture, respectively. …”
