SNK on T × N
Ambient nutrients: H >> F = C_I = C_F			Heat wave: +N >> −N
Enriched nutrients: H >> F = C_I = C_F			Future: +N > −N
			Initial Control: +N = −N
			Final Control: +N = −N
SNK on CO₂ × N
Ambient nutrients: +CO₂ >> −CO₂			Ambient CO₂: +N >> −N
Enriched nutrients: +CO₂ = −CO₂			Enriched CO₂: +N > −N

Analyses (n = 5) were done for the four levels of temperature (initial control temperature: C_I; heat wave: H; future: F; final control: C_F), two levels of CO₂ (current: − CO₂ vs. future: + CO₂) and two levels of nutrients (ambient: −N vs. enriched: +N). The critical value of significance has been adjusted to α = 0.01 (see the ‘Methods’ section). Data were non-transformed. The symbol * denotes terms significant at α = 0.01
