Nutrient addition effects on tropical dry forests: a mini-review from microbial to ecosystem scales

Nutrient addition effects on tropical dry forests: a mini-review from microbial to ecosystem scales

Humans have more than doubled inputs of reactive nitrogen globally and greatly accelerated the biogeochemical cycles of phosphorus and metals. However, the impacts of increased element mobility on tropical ecosystems remain poorly quantified, particularly for the vast tropical dry forest biome. Tro...
