The use of stable isotopes in terrestrial ecosystem ecology is increasing: their great benefit is that they can provide integrated measures of ecological processes over time. Nitrogen (N) isotopes are used to examine the N cycle and plant–soil relationships, where d15N values of ecological materials result from many different and interacting biogeochemical and physiological processes (Hogberg, 1997; Robinson, 2001; Dawson et al., 2002).
