Globally, the differences in the #Coupling of N and P depend on climate, #SoilNutrients, species functional groups and soil interactions. Compared to #Non_legumes, #Legumes have an advantage in acquiring soil #NitrogenAndPhosphorus in warm-humid habitats via their root nodules and symbionts, and tightly couple in their leaf N and P.

To understand growth and adaptation strategy of the #Mosses, Yong-Gang Li et al. selected #SyntrichiaCaninervis in the #GurbantunggutDesert, determine their C, N, P and K #Stoichiometry in different spatial distribution areas, as well as their relationships to #SoilNutrients and #Environment
https://doi.org/10.1093/jpe/rtac070
Rebekka Gerlach et al. found that #Irrigation and #Fertilization led to differences in #SoilProperties and #SoilNutrients without impact on sheer #PlantSpeciesDiversity but on #PlantSpeciesComposition. Thus, irrigation may prove a tool to differentiate between #PlantFunctionalTraits.

Researchers dumped tons of coffee waste into a forest. This is what it looks like now.

30 dump truck loads and two years later, the forest looks totally different.
