Nitrogen (N) is used in many of life's fundamental biomolecules, and it is also a participant in
environmental redox chemistry. Biogeochemical processes control the amount and form of N …

The importance of biological nitrogen fixation (BNF) in securing food production for the
growing world population with minimal environmental cost has been increasingly …

Soil microbes make up a significant portion of the genetic diversity and play a critical role in
belowground carbon (C) cycling in terrestrial ecosystems. Soil microbial diversity and …

Both nitrogen deposition (ND) and microplastics (MPs) pose global change challenges. The
effects of MPs co-existing with ND on ecosystem functions are still largely unknown. Herein …

Soil organic carbon (SOC), as the largest terrestrial carbon pool, plays an important role in
global carbon (C) cycling, which may be significantly impacted by global changes such as …

Soil respiration (Rs) plays a crucial role in regulating carbon (C) cycling in terrestrial
ecosystems and the atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO 2) concentration. However, the impact …

Nitrogen (N) availability has been considered as a critical factor for the cycling and storage
of soil organic carbon (SOC), but effects of N enrichment on the SOC pool appear highly …

Soil microorganisms are key to biological diversity and many ecosystem processes in
terrestrial ecosystems. Despite the current alarming loss of plant diversity, it is unclear how …

Soils harbor a substantial fraction of the world's biodiversity, contributing to many crucial
ecosystem functions. It is thus essential to identify general macroecological patterns related …

Soil organic carbon (SOC) is the largest carbon sink in terrestrial ecosystems and plays a
critical role in mitigating climate change. Increasing reactive nitrogen (N) in ecosystems …
