Experimental nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium deposition decreases summer soil temperatures, water contents, and soil CO<sub>2</sub> concentrations in a northern bog

Ombrotrophic peatlands depend on airborne nitrogen (N), whose deposition has increased in the past and lead to disappearance of mosses and increased shrub biomass in fertilization experiments. The response of soil water content, temperature, and carbon gas concentrations to increased nutrient loadin...
