Trajectories in nitrogen availability during forest secondary succession: illustrated by foliar δ15N
Ecological Processes, 2022 Background Forest succession is an important ecological process and has been studied for more than a century. However, changes in nitrogen (N) availability during succession remain unclear as they may lead to either N saturation or N limitation. Here, we
