Biological nitrogen fixation in peatlands: Comparison between acetylene reduction assay and 15N2 assimilation methods (vol 13, pg 157, 2019)

According to the results, the CF exhibited substantial variability ranging from 0.084 to 536.3, with a median CF of 2.72 (+/- 2.1) and a mean of 45.0 (+/- 238) for both mosses and peat, which encompass the theoretical CF of 3:1; however, the variance in CF values resulted in significant inconsistencies across species, sites and time.

Automated summary

The results showed significant inconsistencies in carbon abundance across species, sites, and time.
