How body size mediates the role of animals in nutrient cycling in
... correlates with body size because large animals are often vertebrates that have high P storage in bone apatite, and presumably a high N:P in excreta. Data on aquatic animals suggest that excreted N:P increases with body size. Wen and Peters (1994), showed that log N excretion rate (mg N/d) increased ...
