A framework for scaling symbiotic nitrogen fixation using the most widespread nitrogen fixer in eastern deciduous forests of the United States

Nina Wurzburger et al.

Summary: The study on symbiotic N fixation by black locust revealed variations in fixation rates at different spatial and temporal scales influenced by forest succession and atmospheric N deposition.

Foliar Stoichiometry is Marginally Sensitive to Soil Phosphorus Across a Lowland Tropical Rainforest

Audrey Massmann et al.

Summary: The study focused on nutrient distribution in a lowland tropical rainforest in Costa Rica, finding that foliar N:P and P variation were mainly influenced by soil P, while foliar N variation was primarily influenced by soil pH. Vertical trends analysis showed that foliar N:P was unrelated to canopy height, while area-basis foliar N and P increased with canopy height.

Exploring the Role of Cryptic Nitrogen Fixers in Terrestrial Ecosystems: A Frontier in Nitrogen Cycling Research

Cory C. Cleveland et al.

Summary: Biological nitrogen fixation is the largest natural process that introduces new nitrogen into terrestrial ecosystems, supporting the primary productivity of natural and agricultural systems. However, cryptic nitrogen fixation, which occurs through mutualistic or free-living microorganisms in soil, litter, roots, and other sources, is still not well understood. This literature review highlights the variability in cryptic nitrogen fixation rates and calls for more comprehensive measurements and investigations to identify controlling factors and generate new hypotheses.

Annual Tropical-Rainforest Productivity Through Two Decades: Complex Responses to Climatic Factors, [CO2] and Storm Damage

Deborah A. Clark et al.

Summary: This 21-year field study in a Costa Rican rainforest provides the first multi-decade record of landscape-scale annual aboveground productivity for a tropical ecosystem. The study found that annual wood production was mainly influenced by slight warming at night and more hot hours during the dry season, while yearly changes in reproductive litterfall were largely determined by increasing CO2 concentrations and declining annual radiation.

Light fuels while nitrogen suppresses symbiotic nitrogen fixation hotspots in neotropical canopy gap seedlings

Lindsay A. McCulloch et al.

Summary: Experimental results show that nitrogen fixation rates are significantly higher in canopy gaps of neotropical lowland forests, primarily driven by light availability rather than nitrogen addition. This suggests that light plays a crucial role in the formation of nitrogen fixation hotspots in canopy gaps, highlighting the importance of understanding the biogeochemical dynamics in neotropical forests.

Light, nitrogen supply, and neighboring plants dictate costs and benefits of nitrogen fixation for seedlings of a tropical nitrogen-fixing tree

Benton N. Taylor et al.

Summary: The ability to fix nitrogen can provide a growth advantage for nitrogen-fixing plants, even under nitrogen-saturated conditions. However, nitrogen fixers may reduce fixation rates to minimize facilitation of neighboring plants.
