DOI: 10.1007/s10021-018-0234-4
Abstract: The structure and function of terrestrial ecosystems are maintained by processes that vary with temporal and spatial scale. This study examined temporal and spatial patterns of net nitrogen (N) mineralization and nitrification in mineral soil… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10021-018-0328-z
Abstract: Conceptual models of nutrient retention in ecosystems suggest that mature forests receiving chronically elevated atmospheric nitrogen (N) deposition should experience increased nitrate (NO3−) losses to streams. However, at the Hubbard Brook Experimental Forest (New Hampshire,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.foreco.2020.117986
Abstract: Abstract Storing a significant portion of the global carbon (C) stocks, soils of the boreal forest display a high degree of spatial heterogeneity across the landscape, arising from variation in forest structure and landscape morphology,… read more here.
