Global atmospheric nitrogen deposition has increased steadily since the 20th century, and
has complex effects on terrestrial ecosystems. This work synthesized results from 54 papers …

Nitrogen (N) deposition to semiarid ecosystems is increasing globally, yet few studies have
investigated the ecological consequences of N enrichment in these ecosystems …

Rapidly increasing atmospheric nitrogen (N) deposition may affect plants, microbes, and
their interactions by changing soil physicochemical properties. A few studies have explored …

Aim Root production and turnover play a key role in regulating carbon (C) flow in terrestrial
ecosystems. However, a general pattern reflecting the responses of roots to increasing …

Global nitrogen (N) deposition patterns have profoundly affected the production and
morphological structure of fine roots, which in turn changed the distribution of carbon in …

Aims Plant roots play a critical role in ecosystem underground processes, and are potentially
influenced by elevated atmospheric nitrogen (N) deposition. However, the effects of N …

Terrestrial ecosystems worldwide are receiving increasing amounts of biologically reactive
nitrogen (N) as a consequence of anthropogenic activities. This intended or unintended …

The root system plays an important role in the growth and development of cotton, and root
growth is closely related to shoot growth, both of which are affected by N availability in the …

A significant increase in reactive nitrogen (N) added to terrestrial ecosystems through
agricultural fertilization or atmospheric deposition is considered to be one of the most …

Atmospheric nitrogen (N) deposition and soil acidification both can largely change soil
microbial activity and root growth with a consequent impact on soil respiration (R s) …
