Abstract in another language
Based on an experimental investigation of nitrogen concentrations and delta15N-values in different parts of Picea abies (L.) Karst. trees and soil samples and of their dependence on the age of plant parts and on damaging stress, mathematical models which represent main features of nitrogen turnover in the forest tree - soil system and associated isotope variations are developed. These models consider parts of 3 cycles of nitrogen: (1) transport of soluble nitrogen within trees, (2) turnover of protein nitrogen in different plant parts, and (3) the exchange of N between tree and soil via litter and the uptake of mineralized soil N by plant roots. Isotope effects of protein synthesis and mineralization of organic soil N are included. The models give a qualitative explanation of the data and lead to a better understanding of isotopic variations as indicators of forest damage.
