Modern agricultural practices have triggered the process of agricultural pollution. This
process can cause the degradation of eco-systems, land, and environment owing to the …

The paradigm that permafrost-affected soils show restricted mineral nitrogen (N) cycling in
favor of organic N compounds is based on the observation that net N mineralization rates in …

Largely removed from anthropogenic delivery of nitrogen (N), Antarctica has notably low
levels of nitrogen. Though our understanding of biological sources of ammonia have been …

Atmospheric deposition of inorganic nitrogen is critical to the function of ecosystems and
elemental cycles. During the industrial period, humans have doubled the amount of …

In this study, we explored the role of biochar (BC) and/or urease inhibitor (UI) in mitigating
ammonia (NH3) and nitrous oxide (N2O) discharge from urea fertilized wheat cultivated …

Box 9E. 1 Continued FIGURE 2. The C–S–R triangle model (Grime 1979). The strategies at
the three corners are C, competiti-winning species; S, stress-tolerating s-cies; R …

Biochar-based controlled release nitrogen fertilizers (BCRNFs) have received increasing
attention due to their ability to improve nitrogen-use efficiency (NUE) and increase crop …

Since the industrial revolution, it has been assumed that fossil-fuel combustions dominate
increasing nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions. However, it remains uncertain to the actual …

Warming can alter the biogeochemistry and ecology of soils. These alterations can be
particularly large in high northern latitude ecosystems, which are experiencing the most …

Soil extractable nitrate, ammonium, and organic nitrogen (N) are essential N sources
supporting primary productivity and regulating species composition of terrestrial plants …
