Increased inputs of reactive nitrogen (N) by fertiliser production cause adverse effects on
terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems as well as human health, through impacts on air, soil and …

Global nitrogen fixation contributes 413 Tg of reactive nitrogen (Nr) to terrestrial and marine
ecosystems annually of which anthropogenic activities are responsible for half, 210 Tg N …

A central role for nature-based solution is to identify optimal management practices to
address environmental challenges, including carbon sequestration and biodiversity …

Aim Experimental nitrogen (N) addition (fertilization) studies are commonly used to quantify
the impacts of increased N inputs on plant biodiversity. However, given that plant community …

Soil pH is critically important in regulating soil nutrients and thus influencing the biodiversity
and ecosystem functions of terrestrial ecosystems. Despite the ongoing threat of nitrogen (N) …

Eutrophication is a major driver of species loss in plant communities worldwide. However,
the underlying mechanisms of this phenomenon are controversial. Previous studies have …

Grasslands are ubiquitous globally, and their conservation and restoration are critical to
combat both the biodiversity and climate crises. There is increasing interest in implementing …

The topics assessed in this chapter were last assessed by the IPCC in 2007, principally in
WGII AR4 Chapters 3 (Kundzewicz et al., 2007) and 4 (Fischlin et al., 2007), but also in WGII …

Atmospheric nitrogen (N) deposition has been shown to decrease plant species richness
along regional deposition gradients in Europe and in experimental manipulations. However …

Plant communities have undergone dramatic changes in recent centuries, although not all
such changes fit with the dominant biodiversity-crisis narrative used to describe them. At the …
