3 sie 2012 · Nutrient limitation has been widely described as a function of foliar nutrient concentration or ratios [Koerselman and Meuleman, 1996; Aerts and Chapin, 1999; Tessier and Raynal, 2003; Güsewell, 2004], whereas other times nutrient limitation is described as the growth response to fertilization [Elser et al., 2007; LeBauer and Treseder, 2008 ...
29 lip 2013 · Nutrient limitation occurs when meaningful additions of an essential element in biologically available forms cause an increase in the rate of a biological process (such as primary productivity) and/or in the size of an important ecosystem compartment (such as bi omass) . (after Vitousek et al. 2010)
1 sty 2015 · Nutrient limitation is defined as growth limitation of an organism due to nutrient deficiency. A nutrient that is in lowest supply relative to the others will be the limiting nutrient to growth and productivity of the organism (Liebig’s Law of the Minimum).
1 lip 2024 · Nutrient limitation refers to the primary limiting nutrient of phytoplankton abundance when there is sufficient available energy (light and heat) (Hecky and Kilham 1988).
27 sty 2020 · A large and growing body of evidence supports that intake of certain types of nutrients, specific food groups, or overarching dietary patterns positively influences health and promotes the...
We suggest that nutrient limitation in communities can be best measured by assessing the plants' response to large nutrient additions that are sufficient to saturate chemical and microbial immobilization processes and still meet plant nutrient requirements.
Evaluate the implications of nutrient limitation on food web dynamics and ecosystem stability. Nutrient limitation plays a pivotal role in shaping food web dynamics by influencing species composition, abundance, and interactions among trophic levels.
