Biochar application to soil has been proposed as a potential management strategy to
enhance soil carbon (C) sequestration, reduce greenhouse gas emission, improve soil …

Elemental stoichiometry constitutes an inherent link between biogeochemistry and the
structure and processes within food webs, and thus is at the core of ecosystem functioning …

Both nitrogen deposition (ND) and microplastics (MPs) pose global change challenges. The
effects of MPs co-existing with ND on ecosystem functions are still largely unknown. Herein …

Most trees form symbioses with ectomycorrhizal fungi (EMF) which influence access to
growth-limiting soil resources. Mesocosm experiments repeatedly show that EMF species …

The crucial biogeochemical processes such as carbon and nutrient cycling are increasingly
altered at the ecosystem scale by global environmental changes. Although soil extracellular …

Soil enzymes are crucial in mediating ecosystems' responses to environmental drivers, so
that the comprehension of their sensitivity to drivers of global change can help make …

Invasive plants affect soil biota through litter and rhizosphere inputs, but the direction and
magnitude of these effects are variable. We conducted a meta‐analysis to examine the …

Soil fungi and bacteria are the key players in the transformation and processing of carbon
and nutrients in terrestrial ecosystems, yet controls on their abundance and activity are not …

Recycling of livestock manure in agroecosystems has been shown to enhance the
sustainability of food production and reduce adverse environmental consequences from …

The increasing input of anthropogenically derived nitrogen (N) to ecosystems raises a
crucial question: how does available N modify the decomposer community and thus affects …
