Riparian soil nitrogen cycling and isotopic enrichment in response to a long‐term salmon carcass manipulation experiment
Abstract Pacific salmon acquire most of their biomass in the ocean before returning to spawn and die in coastal streams and lakes, thus providing subsidies of marine‐derived nitrogen (MDN) to freshwater and terrestrial ecosystems. Recent declines in salmon abundance have raised questions of whether...
