Nutrient effects on Microbial
Respiration
Ojo O. Paul (PhD Student)
Mentor: Melany Fisk (Prof)
Miami University of Ohio
Question
Do N or P influence microbial respiration in the leaf litter layer?
Base trap method
- Moisture content drives results
- Residuals show no influence of nutrients
We do not grow plants.
We grow the soil and the
soil grows the plants.
Thank You -----
