Increasing management intensity of grassland through increased grazing intensity, mowing
frequency and fertilizer input have attracted more attention to the consequences of …

Soil acidification induced by reactive nitrogen (N) inputs can alter the structure and function
of terrestrial ecosystems. Because different N‐transformation processes contribute to the …

Nitrogen (N) enrichment often increases aboveground net primary productivity (ANPP) of the
ecosystem, but it is unclear if belowground net primary productivity (BNPP) track responses …

Soil deficiency, cyclic erosion, and heavy metal pollution have led to fertility loss and
ecological function decline in mining areas. Fertilization is an important way to rapidly …

Abstract Changes in the biosphere carbon (C) sink are of utmost importance given rising
atmospheric CO2 levels. Concurrent global changes, such as increasing nitrogen (N) …

Mowing is a common practice in grassland management. It removes the majority of current
year's aboveground plant biomass and thus substantial amounts of nutrients residing in …

Atmospheric nitrogen (N) deposition poses serious threats to plant and soil microbial
communities in natural grasslands, which can have consequences on ecosystem …

Influenced by nitrogen (N) deposition, changes in soil organic carbon (SOC) sequestration
in terrestrial ecosystems could provide strong feedback to climate change. Mounting …

Nitrogen (N) addition and mowing can significantly influence micronutrient cycling in
grassland ecosystems. It remains largely unknown about how different forms of added N …

Mowing is a widely used practice for haymaking in the semi-arid grassland of northern
China. Yet, how it impacts above-and belowground biota and ultimately affects the …
