Abstract: Plant element stoichiometry and stoichiometric flexibility strongly regulate ecosystem responses to global change. Here, we tested three potential mechanistic drivers (climate, soil nutrients, and plant taxonomy) of both using paired foliar and soil nutrient data… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/forsci/fxy025
Abstract: Tsuga canadensis (L.) Carr. (eastern hemlock) is dying across much of eastern North America from the invasive hemlock woolly adelgid (HWA, Adelges tsugae Annand). Survey studies show that eastern hemlock populations with high foliar nutrient… read more here.

DOI: 10.7717/peerj.13193
Abstract: Foliar chemistry can be useful for diagnosing soil nutrient availability and plant nutrient limitation. In northern hardwood forests, foliar responses to nitrogen (N) addition have been more often studied than phosphorus (P) addition, and the… read more here.
