Soil chronosequences provide valuable model systems to investigate pedogenesis and
associated effects of nutrient availability on biological communities. However, long-term …

The amounts and forms of soil phosphorus (P) follow predictable patterns during long-term
pedogenesis, but have rarely been examined along subtropical chronosequences. We …

The classical model of long‐term ecosystem development suggests that primary productivity
is limited by nitrogen (N) on young substrates and phosphorus (P) on older substrates …

Long‐term soil chronosequences provide natural soil fertility gradients that can be used to
explore linkages between soils and plant community composition and diversity. Well …

Long‐term pedogenesis leads to important changes in the availability of soil nutrients,
especially nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P). Changes in the availability of micronutrients can …

The Haast chronosequence on the west coast of the South Island of New Zealand consists
of a series of coastal dune ridges formed by periodic earthquake disturbance over the last …

This study quantifies progressive pedogenesis under a super-humid climate on the west
coast of South Island, New Zealand. It focuses on soil morphology, pedogenic oxides, soil …

Soil fertility and vegetation are major drivers of soil communities. Soil community responses
to vegetation development and associated changes in soil fertility have been mostly …

The chemical composition of soil phosphorus can vary markedly during pedogenesis, which
has implications for phosphorus availability to plant and microbial communities during long …

Long‐term ecosystem development involves changes in plant community composition and
diversity associated with pedogenesis and nutrient availability, but comparable changes in …
