Urban greenspaces continue to grow with global urbanization. The global distribution and
stock of soil organic carbon (SOC) in urban greenspaces remain largely undescribed and …

Background Black carbon (BC) encompasses a range of carbonaceous materials––
including soot, char, and charcoal––derived from the incomplete combustion of fossil fuels …

The increase of carbon dioxide (CO 2) concentration in the atmosphere is held responsible
for global climate changes. To meet the objective of achieving carbon neutrality and keeping …

Rapid urbanization has increased the areas of urban forests that store considerable soil
carbon (C). Different soil C fractions may show distinctive contents and spatial patterns in …

Nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) are the two most important macronutrients supporting
forest growth. Unprecedented urbanization has created growing areas of urban forests that …

Health benefits from access to nature are well known and increasingly cited as a supporting
argument for the conservation of biodiversity, particularly in cities. However, calculating the …

The escalation of carbon emissions has propelled global warming into a global issue
requiring urgent attention. As primary contributors to global carbon emissions, cities …

Rapid global urbanization has a complex impact on soil organic carbon (SOC) stocks.
Through its direct and indirect impacts on soil formation and development, urbanization …

The rapid accumulation of plastics in the environment has created the need for methods that
allow to identify synthetic organic matter (SyOM) in sample matrices dominated by natural …

Soil inorganic carbon (SIC) plays a crucial role in regulating global carbon (C) cycling by
linking the long‐term geological and short‐term biological C cycles. Soil inorganic carbon …
