Production, Turnover, and Nutrient Dynamics of Above and below ground Detritus of World Forests

K. A. Vogt
TL;DR: Evergreen forests accumulate higher forest floor masses than deciduous in similar climatic zones, but in needle-leaved forests none of the climatic factors or latitude explains the variation in amount of aboveground litterfall mass or litterfall nitrogen (N) input.

Production, Turnover, and Nutrient Dynamics of Above- and Belowground Detritus of World Forests

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors measured the root masses of needle-leaved forests and deciduous forests and found that the proportion of total detrital input to forest floor occurring as aboveground litterfall varied from 23 to 80%.

Fine Roots, Net Primary Production, and Soil Nitrogen Availability: A New Hypothesis

TL;DR: In this article, the relationship between above-and belowground net primary production and soil nitrogen availability was studied at nine temperate forest sites, where annual allocations of nitrogen (N) and Net Primary production to leaf litter, perennial tissues (wood + bark), and aboveground biomass all increased significantly (P <.01) in relation to apparent N uptake by vegetation.

Leaf Area and Above- and Belowground Growth Responses of Loblolly Pine to Nutrient and Water Additions

TL;DR: A 2 x 2 nutrient and water factorial experiment with four replications was installed in an 8-yr-old stand of Ioblolly pine growing on an infertile, excessively drained sandy site in Scotland County, North Carolina, and observed an increase in stem volume growth efficiency.

Carbon dynamics of rocky mountain douglas-fir: influence of water and nutrient availability'

TL;DR: Many of the physiological relations between water or nutrient availability and production and carbon allocation reported in this study are consistent with results from studies on lowland Douglas-fir and other conifer forests in the Pacific Northwest.
