Sentence examples for forest nutrient from inspiring English sources

Thousands of hectares of hemlock forest in the eastern United States have died, a loss that is particularly severe because hemlock grows on rocky slopes where other trees cannot, plays a central role in forest nutrient cycling, moderates stream temperatures, and creates unique habitats with its drooping branches.

Another effect of canopy gaps is the local modification of the forest nutrient balance due to the large amounts of dead leaves and wood that decompose and mineralize (Brokaw and Busing 2000) and that shapes in turn the small-scale spatial variations in forest carbon balance (Feeley et al. 2007; Guitet et al. 2015; Rutishauser et al. 2010).
