Soil Nitrogen Transformation Process Influenced by Litterfall Manipulation in Two Subtropical Forest Types

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Nitrogen (N) is often recognized as the primary limiting nutrient element for the growth and production of forests worldwide. Litterfall represents a significant pathway for returning nutrients from aboveground parts of trees to the soils and plays an ...

Equilibrium responses of global net primary production and carbon storage to doubled atmospheric carbon dioxide: sensitivity to changes in vegetation nitrogen concentration [PDF]

, 1997
We ran the terrestrial ecosystem model (TEM) for the globe at 0.5° resolution for atmospheric CO2 concentrations of 340 and 680 parts per million by volume (ppmv) to evaluate global and regional responses of net primary production (NPP) and carbon ...

How does climate influence mangrove litterfall production across different species? A case study in Zhanjiang, China

Trees, Forests and People
Mangrove litterfall represents a major pathway of energy and nutrient flux, yet species-specific and organ-specific climatic responses remain insufficiently understood. This study quantified litterfall dynamic of three dominant mangrove species—Avicennia

Climate drivers of litterfall biomass dynamics in three types of forest stands on the Loess Plateau

Ecological Indicators
Litterfall is a link in the energy flow and material cycling of ecosystems, which maintain the primary productivity of forests. However, there is no consensus regarding the factors driving for the litterfall biomass dynamics because of the high spatial ...

Litter dynamics and phenology of Melaleuca quinquenervia in south Florida [PDF]

, 2002
We monitored litterfall biomass at six different sites of melaleuca (Melaleuca quinquenervia (Cav.) S.T. Blake) forested wetlands in South Florida from July 1997 to June 1999.
