Carbon use efficiency (CUE) is being intensively applied to quantify carbon (C) cycling
processes from microbial cell to global scales. Energy use efficiency (EUE) is at least as …

Driven by the need for integrated management of groundwater (GW) and surface water
(SW), quantification of GW–SW interactions and associated contaminant transport has …

Belowground microbial communities strongly influence ecosystem function such that
predicting function may rely on understanding ecological processes that assemble …

Dissolved organic matter (DOM) contains complex molecular compounds that dominate its
heterogeneous dynamics and behaviors in aquatic environments. Fourier transform ion …

Dams are important for flood control, water storage, irrigation, electric generation,
navigation, and have been regarded as the largest anthropogenic disturbance in aquatic …

Glacier-retreated areas are ideal areas to study soil biogeochemical processes during
vegetation succession, because of the limited effect of other environmental and climatic …

The sequestration of organic carbon (OC) in wetland sediments is influenced by the
presence of oxygen or lack thereof. The mechanisms of OC sequestration under redox …

The diversity of intrinsic traits of different organic matter molecules makes it challenging to
predict how they, and therefore the global carbon cycle, will respond to climate change …

Dissolved organic matter (DOM) is a large and complex mixture of molecules that fuels
microbial metabolism and regulates biogeochemical cycles. Individual DOM molecules have …

Environmental metabolomes are fundamentally coupled to microbially-linked
biogeochemical processes within ecosystems. However, significant gaps exist in our …
