Abstract
⺠Soil pH and salt effects on gross and net N transformations rates were studied in grassland and forests. ⺠Soil pH affected net and gross N mineralization in the two soils in different ways. ⺠Increasing pH increased gross and net nitrification rates in both soils. ⺠Salt reduced gross nitrification but not gross mineralization rates.
