We found that calcium and magnesium (and to a lesser degree phosphorus and potassium) showed fine-scale patchiness in the field community , the patcheness was stable throughout the study (6 weeks) and was consistent over all these elements. Nutrient patches were associated with high root biomass and the occurrence of roots of several species.
