Nitrogen (N) uptake by spring ephemeral communities has been proposed as a mechanism that retains N within northern hardwood forests during the season of maximum loss. To understand better the importance of these plants in retaining N, we followed the movement of ^1^5NH"4^+ and ^1^5NO"3^- into plant and microbial biomass. Two days following isotope...
