Comparison of inorganic nitrogen uptake dynamics following snowmelt and at peak biomass in subalpine grasslands
Subalpine grasslands are highly seasonal environments and likely subject to strong variability in nitrogen (N) dynamics. Plants and microbes typically compete for N acquisition during the growing season and particularly at plant peak biomass. During snowmelt, plants could potentially benefit from a...
