Extended Data Table 1 Soil physical and chemical characteristics (mean ± SE; n = 32 plots) measured before the start of the nutrient addition experiment

From: Response of tropical forest productivity to seasonal drought mediated by potassium and phosphorus availability

  1. aValues represent depth-weighted (0 − 10 cm, 10 − 30 cm, 30 − 50 cm) averages of the soil characteristics, except for element stocks, which represent the sum of the entire 50 cm soil depth. b Effective cation exchange capacity (ECEC); base saturation is the sum of exchangeable bases (Ca, Mg, K and Na) ÷ ECEC × 100.
