Characteristics, drivers and feedbacks of global greening
Vegetation greenness has been increasing globally since at least 1981, when satellite
technology enabled large-scale vegetation monitoring. The greening phenomenon, together …

The globalization of cultural eutrophication in the coastal ocean: causes and consequences
Coastal eutrophication caused by anthropogenic nutrient inputs is one of the greatest threats
to the health of coastal estuarine and marine ecosystems worldwide. Globally,∼ 24% of the …

Widespread shift from ecosystem energy to water limitation with climate change
Terrestrial ecosystems are essential for food and water security and CO2 uptake. Ecosystem
function is dependent on the availability of soil moisture, yet it is unclear how climate change …

Global patterns of terrestrial nitrogen and phosphorus limitation
Nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) limitation constrains the magnitude of terrestrial carbon
uptake in response to elevated carbon dioxide and climate change. However, global maps …

Crop residue return sustains global soil ecological stoichiometry balance
Although soil ecological stoichiometry is constrained in natural ecosystems, its responses to
anthropogenic perturbations are largely unknown. Inputs of inorganic fertilizer and crop …

Global meta-analysis shows pervasive phosphorus limitation of aboveground plant production in natural terrestrial ecosystems
Phosphorus (P) limitation of aboveground plant production is usually assumed to occur in
tropical regions but rarely elsewhere. Here we report that such P limitation is more …

Nitrogen loading enhances phosphorus limitation in terrestrial ecosystems with implications for soil carbon cycling
Increased human‐derived nitrogen (N) loading in terrestrial ecosystems has caused
widespread ecosystem‐level phosphorus (P) limitation. In response, plants and soil micro …

A better use of fertilizers is needed for global food security and environmental sustainability
The massive use of fertilizers during the last decades allowed a great increase in the global
capacity of food production. However, in the last years, several studies highlight the …
