Abstract

Studies using mixtures of nitrogen-fixing plants mixed with loblolly pine showed no growth increase on a good site but a growth increase on a poor site. Soil nutrient studies showed that soils beneath alder, eleagnus, wax myrtle and red cedar had a higher nutrient concentration than soils not influenced by the crown. Monthly nutrient concentrations were quite variable.

Nitrogen fixation in forested soils by non-leguminous nitrogen-fixing plants and by non-symbiotic soil organisms. Progress report, June 1, 1979-May 31, 1980

Technical Report Lane, C.

Field plantings of several species of nitrogen-fixing plants mixed with loblolly pine were measured after two growing seasons on three sites. Survival of loblolly pine was 86%; thorny eleagnus 97%; black alder 58%; and wax myrtle 88%. There was no evidence of an increase in the growth of the loblolly pine caused by the nitrogen-fixing species. Considerable deer browse damage was evident on the thorny eleagnus planted on a deep sand.

Duke Forest FACE (FACTS-I): Plant and Soil Response Data

Dataset Oren, Ram; Kim, Dohyoung; Maier, Chris; ...

This dataset describing the responses of plant and soil pools and fluxes to elevated atmospheric CO2 concentration and increased nitrogen supply was collected from Duke Forest Free Air CO2 Enrichment (FACE) – Forest-Atmosphere Carbon Transfer and Storage (FACTS-I) experiment from 1996 to 2012. The dataset includes data files for allometry (diameter at breast height, tree height, and height to live crown base), leaf area index, biomass (stem, branch, foliage, and root biomass, tree density, and basal area), net primary productivity (stem, branch, foliage, reproductive, and coarse root NPP), sap flux density, soil CO2 efflux, and stem temperature.

Acidity produced by leguminous plants through symbiotic dinitrogen fixation

Journal Article Liu, Wencheh; Lund, L; Page, A

Red clover (Trifolium prateuse L.), sweet clover (Meliotus alba Medik.), alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.), and crown vetch (Vica villosa Roth) were grown in nitrogen-free Hoagland's solution in a declining nutrient condition. Increases in acidity of the nutrient solutions were recorded over the experimental period. In general, the excess bases and the excess bases/nitrogen ratio varied considerably among harvests. Significant positive relationships between total N and proton efflux, excess bases and H+ excretion, and dry weight and H+ efflux were observed. The milligrams H+ produced per gram N fixed for the four legumes were 49 for red clover, 43 for crownmore »« less

Application of sewage sludge to non-agricultural ecosystems: Impacts of nitrogen on forests

Conference Efroymson, R; Tharp, M; Luxmoore, R; ...

The Clean Water Act (CWA) of 1977 directed EPA to establish standards for use and disposal of sewage sludge (biosolids). This report is part of a larger study evaluating nutrient and contaminant impacts associated with the land application of biosolids in non-agricultural ecosystems. Ecological risk assessments rarely focus on nutrients as stressors. The nutrient components of municipal sewage sludge may impact tree community composition, growth and production, habitat and forage quality for wildlife, and nutrient cycling. The focus here is on three forest ecosystems: northwestern Douglas-fir forest (Pack Forest, WA), southeastern loblolly pine plantation (Athens, GA), and eastern deciduous forestmore »« less
