    Abstract

    The controlling effects of soil moisture on soil nitrogen (N) supply to plants have been well established from lab experiments, and are often incorporated in soil organic matter (SOM) models, but rarely tested in the field along natural gradients of soil moisture. With a large dataset of in-situ incubation experiments across a wide range of natural ecosystems (mostly with shallow groundwater) in the Netherlands and Belgium, we tested whether and how soil moisture influences N mineralization rates (N
