Epiphyte diversity and biomass loads of canopy emergent trees in Chilean temperate rain forests: A neglected functional component (2010, background): “Fog, suspended over the nearby Pacific Ocean, can also contribute nutrients, particularly nitrogen, to mainland forests in Chile (Weathers et al., 2000; Oyarzún et al., 2004), which may be readily absorbed by epiphytes in the canopy that later transfer atmospheric nutrients to forest ecosystems.”
Fluxes of dissolved organic and inorganic nitrogen in relation to stand characteristics and latitude in Scots pine and Norway spruce stands in Finland (2008, background): “These compounds are also predominant in the input N fluxes in areas of low N deposition (Fahey et al. 1985, Stuanes et al. 1995, Currie et al. 1996, Campbell et al. 2000, Weathers et al. 2000).”
Phosphorus Fertilization Increases the Abundance and Nitrogenase Activity of the Cyanolichen Pseudocyphellaria crocata in Hawaiian Montane Forests (2007, background): “Estimates of fixation by free-living bacteria are few in montane forests (Crews et al. 2000, Vitousek & Hobbie 2000), but their contribution to most forest ecosystems is thought to be relatively minor (Son 2001).”
Integrating Ecology and Environmental Ethics: Earth Stewardship in the Southern End of the Americas (2012, unknown): “Precipitation chemistry in this region reveals one of the lowest concentrations of nitrate ever recorded (Likens 1991, Weathers et al. 2000).”
