Soil Nutrients and Tree Species Richness in Costa Rican Forests
Abstract
Analysis of published data for forty-six Costa Rican forest sites indicates a negative correlation between soil nutrient availability and tree species richness. P, K, Ca, Na, total bases, base saturation, and cation exchange capacity showed significant (P< 0.01) correlations, while available nitrogen, total nitro- gen, organic matter, Mn, and Mg were not significantly correlated wth species richness. With six measures of soil nutrients, a stepwise regression gave an R2 of 0.71. Correlations between species richness, precipitation, tree density, tree height, and soil fertility, are consistent with the interpretation that the highest species richness occurs under poor growth conditions. Results of field and glass- house fertilization experiments are reviewed.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
