Climatic Factors Determine the Distribution Patterns of Leaf Nutrient Traits at Large Scales
Leaf nutrient content and its stoichiometric relationships (N/P ratio) are essential for photosynthesis and plant growth and development. Previous studies on leaf nutrient-related functional traits have mainly focused on the species level and regional scale, but fewer studies have investigated the d...
