Leaf nutrient traits of planted forests demonstrate a heightened sensitivity to environmental changes compared to natural forests
Leaf nutrient content (nitrogen, phosphorus) and their stoichiometric ratio (N/P) as key functional traits can reflect plant survival strategies and predict ecosystem productivity responses to environmental changes. Previous research on leaf nutrient traits has primarily focused on the species level...
