Top canopy nitrogen allocation linked to increased grassland carbon uptake in stands of varying species richness

Abstract Models predict that vertical gradients of foliar nitrogen (N) allocation, increasing from bottom to top of plant canopies, emerge as a plastic response to optimise N utilisation for carbon assimilation. While this mechanism has been well documented in monocultures, its relevance for mixed s...
