Spearman's correlation coefficients between total N and P losses, AM fungal colonization (hyphae, vesicles, and arbuscules) and plant biomass (shoot, roots, grasses, forbs, and legumes) using data of moderate and high rain intensity scenarios. Correlations are performed first including AMF and non‐AMF treatments (n = 40) and then, including only the AMF treatments (n = 20)
