Increasing nitrogen deposition enhances post-drought recovery of grassland productivity in the Mongolian steppe

Arid regions are prone to drought because annual rainfall accumulation depends on a few rainfall events. Natural plant communities are damaged by drought, but atmospheric nitrogen (N) deposition may enhance the recovery of plant productivity after drought. Here, we investigated the effect of increas...
