Global meta-analysis shows pervasive phosphorus limitation of aboveground plant production in natural terrestrial ecosystems. [PDF]
Nat Commun, 2020 Phosphorus (P) limitation of aboveground plant production is usually assumed to occur in tropical regions but rarely elsewhere. Here we report that such P limitation is more widespread and much stronger than previously estimated.
