Elevated tropospheric ozone concentration ([O 3 ]) may substantially influence the belowground processes of the terrestrial ecosystem. Nevertheless, a comprehensive and quantitative understanding of the responses of soil C and N dynamics to elevated [O 3 ] remains elusive. In this study, the results...
