Human activities have dramatically altered the Earth’s nitrogen cycle since the Industrial Revolution, driving pollution, biodiversity loss, and climate feedbacks. A new scientific review highlights ...
Dr. Tanja Stratmann’s project, titled “Nitrogen Cycling in Modern Sponges with Clues About Their Role in Past Oceans” (SPYCLING for short), focuses on marine sponges as representatives of the oldest ...
Ammonia-oxidizing archaea (AOA) are some of the most abundant microorganisms in the ocean and play a key role in nitrogen cycling. Yet, despite their ubiquity, scientists have long puzzled over how ...
The Earth's land surface is dominated by sloping landscapes. Every year, soil erosion laterally distributes on the order of 75 Gt of topsoil (Berhe et al. 2007). The coupled biogeochemical cycles of ...
New research emphasizes the previously underestimated significance of atmospheric ON aerosol depositions on ecosystems. Additionally, the ecological effects of ON aerosol depositions are anticipated ...
An international team of researchers has found that nitrogen emissions from fertilizers and fossil fuels have a net cooling effect on the climate. But they warn increasing atmospheric nitrogen has ...
Tropical forests have long been treated as slow, patient allies in the fight against climate change, quietly locking away carbon over decades. A wave of new research suggests that, under the right ...
