Soil moisture, N, P, and forest cover effects on N fixation in alders in the southern boreal forest

Abstract Outside of tropical and arid regions, plant productivity is limited by the availability of soil N. Ironically, these are the regions where N‐fixing plants are restricted to early successional habitats. The energy cost of N fixation has been used to explain the paucity of N‐fixing plants in...
