Isotope pool dilution studies are increasingly reported in the soils and ecology literature as a
means of measuring gross rates of nitrogen (N) mineralization, nitrification, and inorganic N …

We compiled regional and continental data on inorganic nitrogen (N) in seepage and
surface water from temperate forests. Currently, N concentrations in forest waters are usually …

Whether and how to synchronously regulate stream water nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P)
concentrations and ratios is a major challenge for sustainable aquatic functions. Soil carbon …

The knowledge of tree species effects on soil C and N pools is scarce, particularly for
European deciduous tree species. We studied forest floor and mineral soil carbon and …

Concern is resurfacing in the United States over the long-term effects of excess nitrogen (N)
deposition and mobility in the environment. We present here a new synthesis of existing …

The C: N ratio is considered as an indicator of nitrate leaching in response to high
atmospheric nitrogen (N) deposition. However, the C: N ratio is influenced by a multitude of …

Relationships between nitrogen (N) output with seepage water and forest floor CN ratios
were analysed by use of three independent datasets:(i) a compilation of input-output studies …

Abstract Background In 1994, a “Pan-European Programme for Intensive and Continuous
Monitoring of Forest Ecosystems” started to contribute to a better understanding of the …

Throughfall is a critical component of the hydrological and biogeochemical cycles of wooded
ecosystems with a characteristically large degree of temporal and spatial variability. The …

The IFEF database (Indicators of Forest Ecosystem Functioning), consisting of nitrogen
deposition, nitrate leaching fluxes, and soil and ecosystem characteristics, is analysed to …
