Ecological stoichiometry connects different levels of biology, from the gene to the globe, by
scaling up elemental ratios (eg carbon [C], nitrogen [N] and phosphorus [P]). Thus …

Background and aims Ecological stoichiometry plays important roles in ecosystem dynamics
and functioning, but relationships between above-and belowground stoichiometry and …

Abstract Soil carbon (C), nitrogen (N), and phosphorus (P) are three important elements. The
study of stoichiometric relationships of soil C, N, and P in tropical forests on Hainan Island …

Ecological stoichiometry is an efficient tool for exploring the balance and cycling of coupled
elements (eg, carbon [C], nitrogen [N], and phosphorus [P]). Therefore, C: N: P ratios are …

Abstract Knowledge of nutrient traits, especially carbon (C), nitrogen (N), and phosphorus
(P), is essential for understanding the biogeochemical cycle and ecosystem functioning …

Aims The nitrogen and phosphorus characteristics of plants represent plant features and
responses to environmental factors. Our objectives are to distinguish leaf and litter C: N: P …

Ecological stoichiometry reflects the element content and energy flow, which are important
for biogeochemical cycling in ecosystems. However, the ecological stoichiometry in leaves …

Understanding the geographic patterns and potential drivers of leaf stoichiometry is critical
for modelling the nutrient fluxes of ecosystems and to predict the responses of ecosystems to …

Aims Nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) are two key elements of life and are major limiting
nutrients in many ecosystems across the world. The balance of N and P has become the …

Ecological stoichiometry provides important information for understanding biogeochemical
cycling in forest ecosystems. The stoichiometric characteristics of carbon (C), nitrogen (N) …
