Negative responses of terrestrial nitrogen fixation to nitrogen addition weaken across increased soil organic carbon levels
M Zheng, M Xu, D Li, Q Deng, J Mo - Science of The Total Environment, 2023 - Elsevier
The traditional view holds that biological nitrogen (N) fixation is energetically expensive and
thus, facultative N fixers reduce N fixation rates while obligate N fixers are excluded by non …

Coral-associated nitrogen fixation rates and diazotrophic diversity on a nutrient-replete equatorial reef
The role of diazotrophs in coral physiology and reef biogeochemistry remains poorly
understood, in part because N2 fixation rates and diazotrophic community composition have …

Biological nitrogen fixation detected under Antarctic sea ice
Nitrogen fixation is the primary source of reactive nitrogen in the ocean. Most ecological
models do not predict nitrogen fixation in the Antarctic Ocean because of the low availability …
