Interactive effects of C, N and P fertilization on soil microbial community structure and function in an Amazonian rain forest (2015, background): “First, based on previous syntheses on nutrient regulation of various processes in tropical forests (e.g. Kaspari et al. 2008; Cleveland et al. 2011; Townsend et al. 2011), we tested the ‘multiple element lim-”
Species‐specific responses of foliar nutrients to long‐term nitrogen and phosphorus additions in a lowland tropical forest (2014, background): “In addition, a foliar N/P response to altered N and P availability is not necessarily expected if plant growth is limited by light, water or other mineral nutrients (Aerts & Chapin 2000; Wright, Reich & Westoby 2001; Townsend et al. 2011).”
Nitrogen inputs accelerate phosphorus cycling rates across a wide variety of terrestrial ecosystems. (2012, unknown): “Second, data are scarce in the tropics, despite evidence showing that this ecosystem has broad significance for global change (Townsend et al., 2011), with outcomes affected by the kinds of N·P·phosphatase interactions examined here (Houlton et al., 2008).”
Global assessment of limitation to symbiotic nitrogen fixation by phosphorus availability in terrestrial ecosystems using a meta‐analysis approach (2013, background): “…is much more complex [Cleveland et al., 2011; Elser et al., 2007; Harpole et al., 2011], particularly in tropical regions where different nutrient colimitation may occur [Baribault et al., 2012; Townsend et al., 2011; Vitousek and Sanford, 1986; Wright et al., 2011; Wurzburger et al., 2012].”
Eco-enzymatic stoichiometry and enzymatic vectors reveal differential C, N, P dynamics in decaying litter along a land-use gradient (2016, background): “We conclude that shifts in EEA reflect both soil nutrient status and litter quality, demonstrating that microbial communities have multiple resource requirements and potential sources (Townsend et al. 2011; Fanin et al. 2015).”
