Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We revealed the initial response of below-ground carbon dynamics, N and P dynamics, reproduction of trees, and herbivory by insects to N deposition in a cool temperate forest ecosystem. We fertilized 10 ha in area, and established 9 ha control site during 3 years in a secondary deciduous broad-leaved forest of Tomakomai Experimental Forest, Hokkaido University. Biomass of fine roots, soil respiration rates, and phosphoric acids were increased by N fertilization. Reproductive organs of some tree species were tended to increase by the manipulation. Leaf traits of oak and alder species were altered but herbivory rates were not changed in the second year after treatment. In third year, diversity of herbivory insects decreased in the fertilized site.
