On the potential vegetation feedbacks that enhance phosphorus availability – insights from a process-based model linking geological and ecological timescales
In old and heavily weathered soils, the availability of P might be so small that the primary production of plants is limited. However, plants have evolved several mechanisms to actively take up P from the soil or mine it to overcome this limitation. These mechanisms involve the active uptake...
