Leaf Nitrogen Composition; average control benign conditions flooding experiment
The recently fully-expanded leaf on each plant was collected, scanned and then dried at 60 °C to constant mass. The dry leaves were ground with ball mill to fine powder then dried again at 60 °C before weighing out 2-5 mg for Nitrogen analysis with an isotope ratio mass spectrometer (PDZ Europa Integra Cheshire England) which estimates total elemental concentrations in UBC Forestry Stable Isotope Facility. Nmass (%): mass-based nitrogen concentration
