Plant growth is often co‐limited by nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P). Plants might use one
element to acquire another (ie, trading N for P and P for N), which potentially explains …

While growing evidence has shown the shift in terrestrial ecosystems from nitrogen (N)
limitation to phosphorous (P) limitation under increasing N deposition, it is poorly …

Interactions between nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) are important for plant growth and
ecosystem carbon (C) sequestration. While effects of N supply on P dynamics have been …

Inputs of available nitrogen (N) to ecosystems have grown over the recent past. There is
limited general understanding of how increased N inputs affect the cycling and retention of …

Biologically essential elements–especially nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P)–constrain plant
growth and microbial functioning; however, human activities are drastically altering the …

Nitrogen and phosphorus are two important nutrient elements for plants. The current
paradigm suggests that the scaling of plant tissue N to P is conserved across environments …

Background and aims Nitrogen (N) deposition greatly influences ecosystem processes
through the alteration of plant nutrition; however, there is limited understanding about the …

N and P have different eutrophication effects on grassland communities, yet the underlying
mechanisms are poorly understood. To examine plant growth in response to the varying …

Aims Co-limitation of ecosystem productivity by nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) is gaining
increasing recognition, but how co-limitation through N and P interactions differs among …

Phosphorus (P) limitation is expected to increase due to nitrogen (N)‐induced terrestrial
eutrophication, although most soils contain large P pools immobilized in minerals (Pi) and …
