A systematic analysis reveals the driving patterns of different organic nitrogen fraction mineralization, and it highlights the importance of recalcitrant organic nitrogen mineralization for microbial nitrogen immobilization and plant nitrogen uptake. Abstract Soil organic nitrogen (N) mineralization not only supports ecosystem productivity but...

In this commentary, I will discuss how climate warming might influence the impacts of chemicals on (aquatic) ecosystems. It provides a commentary on Sinclair et al. (2024).

Over the past three decades, more than 60% of the ecosystems experienced a conversion from an increased trend to a declined trend in resilience. Attribution analysis showed that the most important driving factors of declined resilience varied regionally. The declined trends in resilience were associated with increased precipitation variability in...

Nitrogen fertilization should be considered when addressing the triple challenges: food security, climate change, and environmental degradation. Nitrogen (N) fertilizers contributed to the global warming by 7.4 Gt CO2eq. from the grain crop production and consumption, which is expected to augment substantially by 2100, responding to the increment...

This study shows that increasing aridity in drylands has a significant impact on the carbon, nitrogen, and phosphorus cycles within plant–soil systems, as well as on biodiversity and ecosystem services across different scales. As aridity increases, soil organic carbon, nutrient, and water content decrease, which can lead to the loss of critical ecosystem...

Human-driven extinctions of native species and introductions of nonindigenous ones have significantly modified the world's biota, often already before the onset of scientific monitoring. Focusing on the Eastern Mediterranean Sea, we analyzed an 18-year-long dataset on live-collected mollusks and compared it to historical biodiversity information reconstructed...
