Leaf nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) concentrations constrain photosynthetic and
metabolic processes, growth and the productivity of plants. Their stoichiometry and scaling …

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 …

Variations in soil microbial metabolism currently represent one of the greatest areas of
uncertainty with regard to soil nutrient cycles and the control of terrestrial carbon (C) and …

Organic fertilization in agroecosystems is an efficient fertilization management for
sequestering carbon (C). Microbial metabolism affects C sequestration by influencing the …

Plant ecological stoichiometry, as a branch of ecological stoichiometry, focuses on the study
of elemental content, ratios and relationships within and across plant organs, and the …

Previous studies have shown that phosphorus addition to P-limited soils increases gaseous
N loss. A possible explanation for this phenomenon is element stoichiometry (specifically of …

Catastrophic regime shifts in shallow lakes are hard to predict due to a lack of clear
understanding of the associate mechanisms. Theory of alternative stable states suggests …

Eutrophication strongly influences plant stoichiometric characteristics and physiological
status by altering nutrient and light availability in the water column. However, the …

The quantification of the allocation of nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) among plant organs
is essential to improve our understanding of plant growth, life‐history strategies and …

Nutrient remobilization is a key process in nutrient conservation in plants and in nutrient
cycling in ecosystems. To predict the productivity of terrestrial ecosystems, we thus need to …
