title: Nutrient uptake by a diverse spring ephemeral community.
abstract: Net production by the six most abundant species in a diverse spring ephemeral community was 66.8 g/m2, and net uptake of nitrogen and potassium were 5.5 and 4.5 kg/ha respectively. These uptake rates are relatively large compared to those reported previously and to other fluxes of these nutrients in the site.
