The large and rapidly expanding body ofliterature related to
nitrogen cycling in both managed and native terrestrial ecosystems
reflects the importance accorded to the behaviour of this vital and
often limiting nutrient. Research at the organism, ecosystem and
landscape levels commonly addresses questions concerning nitrogen
acquisition, internal cycling and retention. Goals for this
research include increased agricultural productivity and a better
understanding of human impact on local, regional and global
nitrogen cycles. Nitrogen cycle research in tropical regions has a
long and distinguished history. Research on different aspects of
nitrogen cycling in ecosystems of the tropics has been carried out
in many regions. In relatively few instances has there, however,
been a focus on the biogeochemical cycles at the ecosystem level.
The meeting resulting in this volume was an attempt to bring
together existing information on nitrogen cycling in ecosystems of
Latin America and the Caribbean and discuss this in an ecosystem
context.
