Purpose As a useful comprehensive index for reflecting nutrient cycling in soils, nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) stoichiometry is subject to influences of many external environmental and biological factors. Studies on such influences were limited, and the influential mechanism remains unclear. The purpose of this research is to investigate soil N and P stoichiometric variations and analyze “fertile island” effects of Tamarix chinensis Lour. (T. chinensis) in the coastal wetland of Laizhou Bay in China.
