High plant diversity alleviates the negative effects of nitrogen deposition on soil nitrogen cycling multifunctionality
Overall, our findings suggest that maintaining or enhancing plant diversity in grasslands could be a key strategy to mitigate the adverse effects of atmospheric nitrogen deposition on soil nitrogen cycling, highlighting the crucial role of plant diversity in regulating ecosystem nutrient cycling under global change.
