Abstract:

Nutrient enrichment can simultaneously increase and destabilize plant biomass production, with co-limitation by multiple nutrients potentially intensifying these effects. Here, we test how factorial additions of nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), and potassium with essential nutrients (K+) affect the stability (mean/standard deviation) of aboveground biomass in 34 grasslands over seven years. Destabilization with fertilization was prevalent but was driven by single nutrients, not synergistic nutrient interactions. On average, N-based treatments increased mean biomass production by 21-51% but increased its standard deviation by 40-68% and so consistently reduced stability. Adding P increased interannual variability and reduced stability without altering mean biomass, while K+ had no general effects. Declines in stability were largest in the most nutrient-limited grasslands, or where nutrients reduced species richness or intensified species synchrony. We show that nutrients can differentially impact the stability of biomass production, with N and P in particular disproportionately increasing its interannual variability.

Description:

The full experimental design and treatments of the Nutrient Network project are detailed at www.nutnet.org.

*Experimental design and nutrient additions*

We assessed the mean, interannual variability and stability of aboveground biomass production in 34 grassland sites that received standardized annual inputs of N, P and K+ for seven years. These data are from the globally distributed Nutrient Network (NutNet) experiment.

Most sites contain 3 blocks (but ranges from 1 to 6) comprising 25 m2 treatment plots that receive one of the possible factorial combinations of N, P and K+ and an unfertilized control plot. Plots are arranged in a randomized block design. Nutrients were applied at a standardized yearly rate, using 10 g N (time-release urea) m-2 yr-1, 10 g P (triple-super phosphate, which also includes Ca) m-2 yr-1, and 10 g K (potassium sulphate, which also includes S) m-2 yr-1. In the first year only, all K plots also received 100 g m-2 of an essential nutrient mix, comprising: 15% Fe, 14% S, 1.5% Mg, 2.5% Mn, 1% Cu, 1% Zn, 0.2% B, and 0.05% Mo – forming the K+ treatment. All plots included in this analysis were open to herbivory. Site-level mean annual precipitation (MAP) and MAP variability data were obtained from the WorldClim Global Climate database (Version 1.4).

*Metrics*

We harvested aboveground biomass annually from two 10 cm x 100 cm strips in each plot at the site-specific time of peak biomass. Live biomass was separated from dead biomass, dried at 60°C and weighed to estimate biomass production in g m-2 year-1 for each plot. Harvest strips were relocated within each plot each year to avoid a clipping effect. We calculated the temporal mean (μ) of biomass within plots as the seven-year mean of annual biomass measurements.

Ecosystems responding to chronic nutrient inputs can display directional trends in biomass that may influence stability metrics. To focus our analysis on interannual variability in biomass production, we detrended our data by taking the residuals from a linear regression of biomass over years of treatment in each plot. Subsequently, the standard deviation of residuals in a plot (σ_detr) was used as a measure of interannual variability and in calculating a single detrended S value for each plot, as: S_d=μ / σ_detr.

Plant species richness and percent cover (to the nearest 1%) were surveyed in permanent 1 m2 quadrats in each plot, based on visual assessment. Surveys were conducted annually or biannually according to the growing season at each site. We used these data to calculate the temporal mean of species richness for each plot. Additionally, we used species’ percent cover to calculate detrended species synchrony in each plot (see paper for full description). Synchrony values are bounded between 0 (perfect asynchrony) and 1 (perfect synchrony).

We calculated treatment effects using natural-log response ratios, as: LRR=ln(treatment/control). This effect size highlights the change in the value of a metric in a treatment plot relative to control plots located within the same experimental block.
