Consequences of removal of exotic species (eucalyptus) on carbon and nitrogen cycles in the soil-plant system in a secondary tropical Atlantic forest in Brazil with a dual-isotope approach [PDF]
The impact of exotic species on heterogeneous native tropical forest requires the understanding on which temporal and spatial scales these processes take place. Functional tracers such as carbon (δ13C) and nitrogen (δ15N) isotopic composition in the soil-

Geomorphic control on the δ15N of mountain forests [PDF]
Mountain forests are subject to high rates of physical erosion which can export particulate nitrogen from ecosystems. However, the impact of geomorphic processes on nitrogen budgets remains poorly constrained.

Improving wood carbon fractions for multiscale forest carbon estimation
Abstract Background Wood carbon fractions (CFs)—the proportion of dry woody biomass comprised of elemental carbon (C)—are a key component of forest C estimation. Traditionally, a generic wood CF of 50% has been assumed in forest C estimation analyses and protocols, but in recent decades, studies have specifically quantified differences in wood
