Distinct microbial limitations in litter and underlying soil revealed by carbon and nutrient fertilization in a tropical rainforest.
Human-caused alterations of the carbon and nutrient cycles are expected to impact tropical ecosystems in the near future. Here we evaluated how a combined change in carbon (C), nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) availability affects soil and litter microbial respiration and litter decomposition in an u...
