Nitrogen (N) availability is a major factor determining plant growth and productivity. Plants acquire inorganic N from the soil, mainly in the form of nitrate and ammonium.

A 110,000‐year history of change in continental biogenic emissions and related atmospheric circulation inferred from the Greenland Ice Sheet Project Ice Core [PDF]
The 110,000‐year record of ammonium concentrations from the Greenland Ice Sheet Project 2 (GISP2) ice core provides the basis for an analysis of terrestrial biological production and atmospheric circulation patterns involved in the transport of ...

Factors affecting ammonium uptake in streams - an inter-biome perspective [PDF]
The Lotic Intersite Nitrogen experiment (LINX) was a coordinated study of the relationships between North American biomes and factors governing ammonium uptake in streams. Our objective was to relate inter-biome variability of ammonium uptake to physical,

Comparison of nitrification inhibitors to restrict nitrate leaching in a maize crop irrigated under mediterranean conditions [PDF]
The aim of this paper was to compare dicyandiamide (DCD) and 3,4 dimethylpyrazole phosphate (DMPP) as inhibitors of ammonium oxidation and nitrate leaching after applying fertilizer to a maize (Zea mays L.) crop grown under Mediterranean conditions.

Simulating the transport of dissolved ammonium-nitrogen and phosphate-phosphorous to streams using artificial neural network (ANN) [PDF]
The export of agricultural fertilizers to streams results in untold harms to downstream water quality and thus ecosystem. Understanding and simulating the export of these chemicals is the first step to control their transport to streams. In this paper, the export of ammonium and phosphate, two major contaminants resulted from agricultural activities ...

High pressure structural, elastic and vibrational properties of green energetic oxidizer ammonium dinitramide [PDF]
Ammonium DiNitramide (ADN) is one of the most promising green energetic oxidizers for future rocket propellant formulations. In the present work, we report a detailed theoretical study on structural, elastic, and vibrational properties of the emerging oxidizer under hydrostatic compression using various dispersion correction methods to capture weak ...

Effect of long-term changes in soil chemistry induced by road salt applications on N-transformations in roadside soils [PDF]
Of several impacts of road salting on roadside soils, the potential disruption of the nitrogen cycle has been largely ignored. Therefore the fates of low-level ammonium-N and nitrate-N inputs to roadside soils impacted by salting over an extended period (

Nitrogen fertilizer rate but not form affects the severity of Fusarium wilt in banana
Nitrogen (N) fertilizers are routinely applied to bananas (Musa spp.) to increase production but may exacerbate plant diseases like Fusarium wilt of banana (FWB), which is the most economically important disease.
