N addition decreased stand structure diversity in young but increased in middle-aged Metasequoia glyptostroboides plantations

Nitrogen (N) addition has a pronounced impact on tree growth and forest function, but its effects on forest structure diversity are seldom studied. In this study, we measured leaf N and phosphorus (P) stoichiometry, and diameter at breast height (DBH) in both young (N limitation) and middle-aged (P...
