Spatial variation in leaf nutrient traits of dominant desert riparian plant species in an arid inland river basin of China
Abstract Understanding how patterns of leaf nutrient traits respond to groundwater depth is crucial for modeling the nutrient cycling of desert riparian ecosystems and forecasting the responses of ecosystems to global changes. In this study, we measured leaf nutrients along a transect across a groun...
