Influence of warming on soil water potential controls seedling mortality in perennial but not annual species in a temperate grassland

In a water-limited system, the following hypotheses are proposed: warming will increase seedling mortality; elevated atmospheric CO2 will reduce seedling mortality by reducing transpiration, thereby increasing soil water availability; and longevity (i.e. whether a species is annual or perennial) wil...
