Microbial nitrogen (N) immobilization in soil can be enhanced by increasing carbon (C)
bioavailability, yet the response of microbial N immobilization to the addition of organic …

Microbially-derived nitrogen (N) has been considered as one of important contributors to soil
organic N, but few studies have quantified the rate of necromass N decomposition. Here, via …

Both soil microbial nitrate (NO 3−-N) immobilization and denitrification are carbon (C)-
limited; however, to what extent organic C addition may increase NO 3−-N immobilization …

Ecosystem productivity usually exhibits first increase and then saturated response to
increasing nitrogen (N) additions, yet the broad‐scale pattern and potential drivers of the N …

Aims Decomposition of manure deposited onto pasture from grazing animals represents an
important process for carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) cycles in grassland systems. However …

To provide sufficient quantities of food and feed, farming systems have to overcome limiting
factors such as the nutrient depletion of arable soils. Nitrogen being the main mineral …

Decomposition of plant organic matter plays a key role in the terrestrial biogeochemical
cycles. Sunlight has recently been identified as an important contributor to carbon [C] …

Straw-derived N is an organic N source, that plays an important role in agroecosystems.
However, quantitatively tracing the release and fate of exogenous straw-derived N in a rice …

Ecological stoichiometry assessment provides insight into the interactions between foliar-
litter-soil dynamics among dominant tree species and facilitates their conservation …

Wetlands play a key role in regulating global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions but
anthropogenic impacts on nutrients may severely alter this balance. Recent assessments …
