Human‐driven changes in nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) inputs are modifying
biogeochemical cycles and the trophic state of many habitats worldwide. These alterations …

Although awareness that air pollution can damage vegetation dates back at least to the
1600s, the processes and mechanisms of damage were not rigorously studied until the late …

Nitrogen (N) deposition has increased substantially since the second half of the 20th century
due to human activities. This increase of reactive N into the biosphere has major …

Elevated atmospheric nitrogen (N) deposition on terrestrial ecosystems has become one of
the most important drivers of microbial diversity loss on a global scale, and has been …

The ecosystem services framework can be used as a way of balancing economic, ecological
and societal drivers in land management decision-making processes. As heathland …

Heather, Calluna vulgaris, is a non-native plant that displaces indigenous vegetation in
Tongariro National Park (TNP), New Zealand (NZ), and was targeted for biocontrol with …

Nonstructural carbohydrates (NSC) are important for plant growth and defense, and
represent an important carbon pool that contributes to carbon (C) cycling and balance, but …

Ecosystems adapted to low nitrogen (N) conditions such as Calluna-heathlands are
especially sensitive to enhanced atmospheric N deposition that affects many aspects of …

Anthropogenic increases in nitrogen (N) concentrations in the environment are affecting
plant diversity and ecosystems worldwide, but relatively little is known about N impacts on …

Atmospheric nitrogen deposition can alter soil microbial communities and further impact the
structure and function of forest ecosystems. However, most studies are focused on positive …
