Use of dynamic soil–vegetation models to assess impacts of nitrogen deposition on plant species composition: an overview
Field observations and experimental data of effects of nitrogen (N) deposition on plant
species diversity have been used to derive empirical critical N loads for various ecosystems …

Topographic wetness index explains soil moisture better than bioindication with Ellenberg's indicator values
Topography is an important determinant of soil moisture (SM) distribution and thus drives the
functioning of terrestrial ecosystems, including vegetation composition and structure. To …

Plant species responses to an elevational gradient in German North Sea salt marshes
S Suchrow, K Jensen - Wetlands, 2010 - Springer
Salt marsh vegetation often occurs in zones along an elevational gradient. We present a
detailed analysis of the distribution of species in a data set of 2,691 plots from salt marshes …

The role of inter-and intraspecific variations in grassland plant functional traits along an elevational gradient in a Mediterranean mountain area
Elevational gradients offer special opportunities to investigate the relative role of
intraspecific and interspecific trait variations in relation to stress gradients. We used an …
