Purpose The biogeochemical cycling of phosphorus (P) is essential for maintaining plant productivity and thus plays a vital role in soil carbon sequestration. However, how soil P availability responds to increasing atmospheric nitrogen (N) deposition in subalpine forests remains unclear. The aims of...
