Seasonal dynamics of standing crop and chemical composition in Marion Island (sub-Antarctic) vegetation / Valdon Redvers Smith.
Title: | Seasonal dynamics of standing crop and chemical composition in Marion Island (sub-Antarctic) vegetation / Valdon Redvers Smith. |
Author(s): | Smith, Valdon Redvers. |
Date: | 1985. |
Publisher: | Bloemfonteine, South Africa : |
Abstract: | Investigates phytomass and chemical composition of plant standing cover on sub-Antarctic Marion Island. Includes nutrient status of soils; nutrient input through precipitation; autotrophic and heterotrophic nitrogen fixation as possible causes of reduced nitrogen supply; and influence of abiotic factors on rate of acetylene reduction by cyanobacteria epiphytic on moss. |
Notes: | Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Faculty of Science, Department of Botany, University of the Orange Free State. |
