Waarom planten in drassige gebieden zeer productief zijn
Leidse milieuwetenschappers hebben ontdekt dat het zogenaamde leaf economics spectrum voor planten niet alleen kan worden toegepast op landelijke ecosystemen, zoals bossen en graslanden, maar ook op drassige gebieden (wetlands). De bevindingen, gepubliceerd in Nature Communications, dragen bij aan de…
