RESPONSE OF THE N AND P CYCLES OF AN OLD GROWTH MONTANE FOREST IN ECUADOR TO EXPERIMENTAL LOW LEVEL N AND P AMENDMENTS

Atmospheric nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) depositions are expected to increase in the tropics as a consequence of increasing human activities in the next decades. In the literature, it is frequently assumed that tropical montane forests are N-limited, while tropical lowland forests are P-limited....
