Abstract:
AbstractWhether net primary productivity in an aquatic ecosystem is limited by nitrogen (N), limited by phosphorus (P), or co-limited by N & P is determined by the relative supply of N and P to phytoplankton compared to their elemental requirements for primary production, often characterized by the “Redfield” ratio. The supply of these essential nutrients is affected by both external inputs and biogeochemical processes within the ecosystem. In this paper, we examine external sources of nutrients to aquatic systems and how the balance of N to P inputs influences nutrient limitation. For oce

Abstract Agro-food systems require nutrient input from several sources to provide food products and food-related services.

However, existing assessments omit the links between sectors, especially between the agriculture, manufacturing, and energy sectors.

Abstract:
Present paper illustrates the litter and nutrient dynamics of Shisham (Dalbergia sissoo Roxb.) forests at 1-3 years aged growing in Tarai belt of Kumaon of Uttarakhand. The objectives of this study were to determine the litter inputs, nutrients (NPK) and their dynamics. Shisham is commonly occurred in the nutrient poor site because of their leguminous features. This study was carried out in young aged Shisham forests for the estimation of tree density, forest floor, litter fall and nutrients content and returns. The litter trap methods were used for the estimation of forest floor biomass and l

The main objective of the study was to compare nutrient balances of phosphorus (P), potassium (K), magnesium (Mg) and calcium (Ca) on fertilized grass pasture (high input) and unfertilized grass-clover pasture (low input) both grazed by dairy cattle. The second aim was to quantify P loss in surface runoff from the fertilized grass pasture. The study was conducted on a lysimeter field that included two surface runoff collector ditches. The whole area was rotationally stocked five times per year and the amount of milk was recorded. Nutrient balances were negative on both grass and grass-clover p

In coastal productive environments, such as upwelling systems, sewage effluents might represent an important input of nutrients affecting intertidal community development and structure. Using descriptive and experimental approaches, the community spatial variation and early succession in relation to a point-source effluent discharge in a rocky intertidal of an upwelling affected area (Ancón Bay, Peru) was analysed. The relative contribution of herbivory to the observed patterns was also analysed. Dissolved nutrient concentrations, macroalgal isotopic signatures and N content revealed a signifi

Input–output nutrient budgets were constructed for 8 and 10 diked contiguous 4- to 6-ha marshes in 1981 and 1982, respectively. Because the marshes studied were created by diking within a larger marsh, the water budgets were dominated by water pumped in to replace roughly equal evapotranspiration and seepage losses. Chloride budgets could not be used to confirm water budgets, apparently because of a transfer to the sediments by a freezing-out process in winter and a subsequent diffusion back into the surface water during the ice-free season.

Abstract Apple is an important horticultural crop in China and its production consumes large amounts of Chemical fertilizers. In a survey of more than 300 Chinese apple growers, we found that small farmers’ fertilizer inputs are blind.

AbstractDeveloping reduced-input agroecosystems is a challenge to researchers and practitioners in a number of disciplines. In particular, because of the complexity of managerial inputs, understanding the effects of decreases in levels of one or several inputs presents a difficult experimental problem. Moderate reductionism is proposed as an appropriate hierarchical analysis, which first characterizes system level behavior and then explains it in terms of system components and their interactions.

AbstractRaised field agriculture in southwest Tlaxcala, Mexico, is a sophisticated, intensive traditional system of wetland cultivation that dates back to as early as 300 B. C. It provides an exceptional example of how farming practices can fit into and even take advantage of ecosystem processes. The raised fields appear to be largely self-reliant in energy and nutrients. Tlaxcalan farmers use canals, aquatic plants, polycultures, alder (Alnus firmifolia) and other trees to intensify the nutrient input into their fields and minimize nutrient losses through leaching and runoff Although the rais

Increases in soil nutrients in urban bushland are associated with the presence of exotic species, and the decline in the diversity of native species. This study tested the hypothesis that high conce

Vertical mixing, however, complicates this view as cells are exposed to fluctuating radiation regimes, for which the effects have, in general, been neglected. Furthermore, the combined impacts of mixing, together with those of UVR and nutrient inputs are vir
