Altered ecosystem carbon and nitrogen cycles by plant invasion: a meta‐analysis
Plant invasion potentially alters ecosystem carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) cycles. However, the
overall direction and magnitude of such alterations are poorly quantified.• Here, 94 …

Challenges to incorporating spatially and temporally explicit phenomena (hotspots and hot moments) in denitrification models
Denitrification, the anaerobic reduction of nitrogen oxides to nitrogenous gases, is an
extremely challenging process to measure and model. Much of this challenge arises from …
