New Perspectives on Nitrogen Cycling in the Temperate and Tropical Americas : Report of the International Scope Nitrogen Project, Hardcover by Townsend, Alan R. (EDT); Scope Nitrogen Project (COR), ISBN 0792357043, ISBN-13 9780792357049, Brand New, Free shipping in the US Based on a May 1996 workshop held in Chile, 12 papers compare nitrogen cycling in the relatively pristine temperate zone of South America with the generally more polluted zone of North America, and compare both with nitrogen cycling in the tropical regions of Latin America. The authors address nitrogen cycling in both terrestrial ecosystems and aquatic ecosystems with an emphasis on the moist tropics, and the question of why nitrogen limitation remains so widespread despite the occurrence of organisms that can fix atmospheric nitrogen. A final paper investigates the interactions between nitrogen limitation and water availability in dryland ecosystems. The papers are reprinted from Biogeochemistry v. 46, nos. 1-3. No index.
