Ecological stoichiometry is the study of the balance of multiple chemical elements in
ecological interactions. This paper reviews recent findings in this area and seeks to broaden …

Based on the observation that organism‐specific elemental content creates ecologically
relevant mismatches such as between plant and animal tissue, it was postulated—and …

Every living creature on Earth is made of atoms of the various bioelements that are
harnessed in the construction of molecules, tissues, organisms, and communities, as we …

Human activities have more than doubled the amount of nitrogen (N) circulating in the
biosphere. One major pathway of this anthropogenic N input into ecosystems has been …

The fate of carbon (C) in organisms, food webs, and ecosystems is to a major extent
regulated by mass‐balance principles and the availability of other key nutrient elements. In …

Abstract C, N and P are three of the most important elements used to build living beings, and
their uptake from the environment is consequently essential for all organisms. We have …

Human‐driven changes in nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) inputs are modifying
biogeochemical cycles and the trophic state of many habitats worldwide. These alterations …

Inadequate supply of one or more mineral elements can slow the growth of animal
consumers and alter their physiology, life history and behaviour. A key concept for …

Numerous contaminants of emerging concern (CECs) typically occur in urban rivers.
Wastewater effluents are a major source of many CECs. Urban runoff (stormwater) is a major …

Describing the relative magnitude and controls of herbivory and decomposition is important
in understanding the trophic transference, recycling, and storage of carbon and nutrients in …
