Fertile soil is fundamental to our ability to achieve food security, but problems with soil
degradation (such as acidification) are exacerbated by poor management. Consequently …

Soil organic carbon (SOC), as the largest terrestrial carbon pool, plays an important role in
global carbon (C) cycling, which may be significantly impacted by global changes such as …

Simple Summary Microorganisms and their enzymes are crucial to ensuring soil quality,
health, and carbon sequestration. Their numerous reactions are essential for …

The crucial biogeochemical processes such as carbon and nutrient cycling are increasingly
altered at the ecosystem scale by global environmental changes. Although soil extracellular …

Microbial elements use efficiencies are the important parameters in regulating soil carbon
(C) and nitrogen (N) mineralization processes. Microbial C use efficiency (CUE) describes …

Higher ecosystem nitrogen (N) inputs resulting from human activities often suppress soil
microbial biomass and respiration, thereby altering biogeochemical cycling. Soil …

Microplastic as an anthropogenic pollutant accumulates in terrestrial ecosystems over time,
threatening soil quality and health, for example by decreasing aggregate stability. Organic …

Due to the profound impact of nitrogen (N) input on soil systems, linking the activity and
composition of soil microbial communities to soil organic carbon (SOC) is crucial to reveal …

Important biochemical reactions in soils are catalyzed by extracellular enzymes, which are
synthesized by microbes and plant roots. Although enzyme activities can significantly affect …

Interactions between nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) are important for plant growth and
ecosystem carbon (C) sequestration. While effects of N supply on P dynamics have been …
