Researchers transplanted vegetation from four grass land ecosystems¹ to lower warmer elevations². They also motivate the precipitation at the transplants sites based on auto³ rain for estimates. For the first year, the plants did agree producing more biomass and churning more oxygen for us. But the productivity went down for the rest of the decade, what happened? Warming did speed up the nitrogen cycle which should have increased nitrogen's ability as plant fertilizer. But lot of the nitrogen left the soil through run off or uptaken to the atmosphere. In addition productive native plants begin to lose out species that thrive at higher temperatures but less productive than the natives. Warmers temperature may spur immediate⁴ growth but in the long term we can't expect plants to like a hot.
