Water and nitrogen availability limit crop productivity globally more than most other
environmental factors. Plant availability of macronutrients such as nitrate is, to a large extent …

Theory and evidence indicate that trees and other vegetation influence the atmospheric
water-cycle in various ways. These influences are more important, more complex, and more …

A warming climate coupled with reductions in water availability and rising salinity are
increasingly affecting rice (Oryza sativa) yields. Elevated temperatures combined with …

Anthropogenic nitrogen (N) deposition has accelerated terrestrial N cycling at regional and
global scales, causing nutrient imbalance in many natural and seminatural ecosystems …
