In terrestrial ecosystems, leaf litter is the main source of nutrients returning to the soil.
Understanding how litter decomposition responds to stand age is critical for improving …

Litter decomposition is a major method in which nutrients are recycled, especially carbon
and nitrogen elements, in terrestrial ecosystems. However, how the responses of litter …

Climate change may significantly increase drying-wetting cycles (DWC) in terrestrial
ecosystems. However, the effects of DWC on soil microbial biomass carbon (MBC) and …

Soil organic matter decomposition is an essential process of the ecosystem biogeochemical
cycle. However, the comprehension of soil organic matter decomposition mechanisms at a …

Climate change-induced alterations in precipitation regimes can substantially impact litter
decomposition and consequently affect carbon (C) and nutrient cycling in terrestrial …

Dissolved organic carbon (DOC) in agricultural soils is a pivotal indicator of soil carbon
response to management practices, facilitating substance transport, energy transfer, and …

Microplastics (MPs) may interfere with the primary ecological processes of soil, which has
become a growing global environmental issue. In terrestrial ecosystems, litter decomposition …

Understanding the role of organic amendments on soil potassium (K) distribution
characteristics in Chinese paddy fields, we conduct a meta-analysis to explore the effect of …

To provide sufficient quantities of food and feed, farming systems have to overcome limiting
factors such as the nutrient depletion of arable soils. Nitrogen being the main mineral …

The rhizosphere is the most active soil area for material transformation and energy flow of
soil, root, and microorganism, which plays an important role in soil biochemical cycling …
