Grasslands store approximately one third of the global terrestrial carbon stocks and can act
as an important soil carbon sink. Recent studies show that plant diversity increases soil …

As a wide‐bandgap semiconductor material, titanium dioxide (TiO2), which possesses three
crystal polymorphs (ie, rutile, anatase, and brookite), has gained tremendous attention as a …

Grasslands are under severe threat from ongoing degradation, undermining their capacity to
support biodiversity, ecosystem services and human well-being. Yet, grasslands are largely …

Root exudates are well-known 'labile'sources of soil carbon that can prime microbial activity.
Recent investigations suggest that the stability of labile carbon inputs in soil mostly depends …

The catalytic transformation of CO2 into valuable fuels/chemicals is a promising and
economically profitable process because it offers an alternative toward fossil feedstocks and …

Extensive ecosystem restoration is increasingly seen as being central to conserving
biodiversity and stabilizing the climate of the Earth. Although ambitious national and global …

A dietary shift from animal-based foods to plant-based foods in high-income nations could
reduce greenhouse gas emissions from direct agricultural production and increase carbon …

Fertile soils have been an essential resource for humanity for 10,000 y, but the ecological
mechanisms involved in the creation and restoration of fertile soils, and especially the role of …

Soil carbon sequestration (SCS) refers to the uptake of carbon (C) containing substances
from the atmosphere and its storage in soil C pools. Soil microbial community (SMC) play a …

Abstract CONTEXT In the European Union (EU-27) and UK, animal farming generated
annually more than 1.4 billion tonnes of manure during the period 2016–2019. Of this, more …
