Knowledge graph centered on Nitrogen deposition simulation in ant colony enclosures (Formicidae) with 22 nodes and 91 connections. Top connected: Ligusticum porteri, Artemisia, mutualistic relationships, herbivory, trophic cascade.
Factorial experiment testing effects of low-level nitrogen enrichment on trophic cascades using enclosed ant colonies with controlled fertilizer applications. Enclosures contained single ant nests and received either ambient or elevated N deposition treatments.
