Complex dynamics of twig elements and stoichiometric ratios with altitude changes in the typical dry valley, eastern Qinghai-Tibet plateau

The concentrations of carbon (C), nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P) and stoichiometric ratios of twig (i.e. stem and leaves) are the important indicators to connect plant individual and the abiotic environment, which reflects the nutritional status for plants and ecosystem function. However, the variatio...
