Vm. Semyonov et al., MOBILIZATION OF AVAILABLE NITROGEN IN THE COURSE OF THE ACTIVE PHASE OF ORGANIC-MATTER MINERALIZATION, Eurasian soil science, 28(10), 1996, pp. 185-194
The dynamics of organic N-15 of microbial biomass and of the phytomass
mineralization in a gray forest soil has been studied. The mineraliza
bility rate of this organic material is shown to be comparable with th
e mobilization rates of N-15 of fertilizers and of N-14 of the soil or
ganic matter active phase.
