Soil extracellular enzyme stoichiometry (EES), the ratio of extracellular enzyme activities
(EEAs) related to the acquisition of nutrients such as carbon (C), nitrogen (N) and …

Aim Ecoenzymatic stoichiometry provides a promising avenue for deciphering resource
constraints on soil microbial metabolism but is hampered by limitations in current modelling …

Forest soils contain a large amount of organic carbon and contribute to terrestrial carbon
sequestration. However, we still have a poor understanding of what nutrients limit soil …

Soil microorganisms and their extracellular enzymes are key factors determining the
biogeochemical cycles of carbon (C), nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P). Relevant studies …

Soil extracellular enzyme activity (EEA) stoichiometry reflects the dynamic balance between
microorganism metabolic demands for resources and nutrient availability. However …

Soil enzyme stoichiometry has been proposed to reflect microbial resource limitation.
However, this view overlooks the profound variations in microbial community composition …

Abstract Knowledge about resource limitations faced by soil microorganisms is crucial for
understanding ecosystem functions and processes. In recent decades, vegetation …

The dual roles of minerals in inhibiting and prolonging extracellular enzyme activity in soils
and sediments are governed by enzyme adsorption to mineral surfaces. Oxygenation of …

The partial substitution of chemical nitrogen (N) fertilizer with organic fertilizers is widely
used to maintain soil fertility and enhance crop yield, although its effects on soil organic …

Anthropogenic activities have increased ecosystem phosphorus (P) inputs and have
affected terrestrial ecosystem carbon (C) cycles. However, the fate of soil organic C (SOC) …
