Tree-ring N isotopic ratio increased with increasing latitude and decreasing N availability in pine stands across Finland

Since nitrogen (N) is the main forest-growth limiting nutrient in the boreal region, atmospheric N deposition may be an important source of available soil N. The objective of the study was to determine whether the variation in N deposition is reflected in the stem wood N and in its isotopic signatur...
