Unusually negative nitrogen isotopic compositions (&delta;<sup>15</sup>N) of mangroves and lichens in an oligotrophic, microbially-influenced ecosystem

Extremes in &delta;<sup>15</sup>N values in mangrove tissues and lichens (range =+4 to &minus;22&permil;) were measured from a mangrove forest ecosystem located on Twin Cays, offshore islands in Belize, Central America. The N isotopic compositions and concentrations of NH<...
