The nitrogen management index (NMI) was calculated following the method of Blair et al. (1995) for the carbon management index. In all systems, labile N released by KMnO4 was a better indicator of N availability than total and stable N. The NMI was a good indicator of N availability but gave no information about the total amount of N. In land use system analysis, total N and labile N can be used together as a simple and rapid way to evaluate the N status of the soil. Legume-based pastures specifically increased the amount of labile N. Although soybeans had a dominant role in the continuous cropping systems studied, the total N contents of these systems were lower than those of the natural Cerrado. The availability of N under legume-based pastures and legume-based pasture-crop rotations was higher than under the natural Cerrado and the continuous cropping systems.", "keywords": ["2.

Accordingly, we measured soil and foliar N concentration and N isotope ratios (\u03b415N) throughout the campina-campinarana transect and compared to published dense terra-firme forest results. There were no differences between white-sand vegetation types in regard to soil N concentration, C:N ratio and \u03b415N across the transect. Both white-sand vegetation types showed very low foliar N concentrations and elevated foliar C:N ratios, and no significant difference between site types was observed. Foliar \u03b415N was depleted, varying from \u22129.6 to 1.6\u2030 in the white-sand vegetations. The legume Aldina heterophylla had the highest average \u03b415N values (\u22121.5\u2030) as well as the highest foliar N concentration (2.1%) while the non-legume species had more depleted \u03b415N values and the average foliar N concentrations varied from 0.9 to 1.5% among them. Despite the high variation in foliar \u03b415N among plants, a significant and gradual 15N-enrichment in foliar isotopic signatures throughout the campina\u2013campinarana transect was observed. Individual plants growing in the campinarana were significantly enriched in 15N compared to those in campina.
