The stoichiometry of soil microbial biomass determines metabolic quotient of nitrogen mineralization

Soil nitrogen (N) mineralization is crucial for the sustainability of available soil N and hence ecosystem productivity and functioning. Metabolic quotient of N mineralization ( Q _min ), which is defined as net soil N mineralization per unit of soil microbial biomass N, reflects the efficiency of s...
