Fertilizers have become an essential part of our global food supply chain and are necessary
to sustain our growing population. However, fertilizers can also contribute to greenhouse …

Soils are integral to the function of all terrestrial ecosystems and to food and fibre production.
An overlooked aspect of soils is their potential to mitigate greenhouse gas emissions …

Almost half of global nitrogen (N) fertilizer is applied to rice, wheat and maize, but a large
proportion is not directly taken up causing detrimental effects on the environment. To …

Soil nitrification, an important pathway of nitrogen transformation in ecosystems, produces
soil nitrate that influences net primary productivity, while the by‐product of nitrification …

Nitrous oxide (N2O) is a potent greenhouse gas (GHG) that also depletes stratospheric
ozone. Nitrogen (N) fertilizer rate is the best single predictor of N2O emissions from …

Although it is well established that soils are the dominating source for atmospheric nitrous
oxide (N2O), we are still struggling to fully understand the complexity of the underlying …

Sustainable food production is one of the major challenges of the twenty-first century in the
era of global environmental problems such as climate change, increasing population and …

Agricultural landscapes are the largest source of anthropogenic nitrous oxide (N2O)
emissions, but their specific sources and magnitudes remain contested. In the US Corn Belt …

Inhibitors are widely considered an efficient tool for reducing nitrogen (N) loss and improving
N use efficiency, but their effectiveness is highly variable across agroecosystems. In this …

Our understanding and quantification of global soil nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions and the
underlying processes remain largely uncertain. Here, we assessed the effects of multiple …
