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 …

Nitrogen is a key element controlling the species composition, diversity, dynamics, and
functioning of many terrestrial, freshwater, and marine ecosystems. Many of the original …

A review of forest N cycling literature indicates that most forest ecosystems contain less N
than would be expected from even modest inputs of N from atmospheric deposition and N …

Most forests in North America remain nitrogen limited, although recent studies have
identified forested areas that exhibit symptoms of N excess, analogous to overfertilization of …

PHYSIOLOGICAL PROCESSES 3761. The chemical uniqueness of calcium 376 (a) …

Atmospheric pollution and other human activities have altered natural element cycles over
large regions of the world. Much current understanding of nutrient dynamics in temperate …

On the basis of a field experiment in Norway spruce with acid irrigation and compensatory
liming of the soil surface (Höglwald, S-Bavaria), liming effects are described as lime …

Leaching losses of nitrate from forests can have potentially serious consequences for soils
and receiving waters. In this study, based on extensive sampling of forested watersheds in …

Variations in plant community composition across the landscape can influence nutrient
retention and loss at the watershed scale. A striking example of plant species importance is …

During the past decade, significant spatial and temporal variability in the release of nitrate‐
nitrogen (N) from catchments in a sugar maple forest in central Ontario was observed. To …
