Consequences and recovery after nutrient enrichment in the boreal forest understory
Atmospheric nitrogen deposition poses a serious threat to plant communities globally. Furthermore, nitrogen-induced shifts in plant community composition may create positive feedbacks via litter decomposition by the soil microbial community. These feedbacks could prevent the recovery of plant comm...
