Poster Number: 308 Presenter/Primary Author: John Blair The Konza Prairie LTER program (KNZ) is a comprehensive ecological research, education and outreach program, centered on one of the most productive grasslands in North America – the tallgrass prair
Is the missing nitrogen source (or sink) at Hubbard Brook statistically significant? Quantifying Uncertainty in Ecosystem Studies (QUEST)
Poster Number: 306 Presenter/Primary Author: Ruth Yanai Nutrient budgets for forested ecosystems have rarely included error analysis, making it difficult to establish the significance of the results. At the Hubbard Brook Experimental Forest, the N
Nitrous Oxide (N2O) production by Rhizosphere fungi from Nitrogen fertilized grasslands
Poster Number: 304 Presenter/Primary Author: Sara Lopez The use of nitrogen (N) fertilizers has created international concern as denitrification of fertilizer-derived nitrate could result in higher rates of N2O release to the atmosphere.
