Soil acidification drives a massive accumulation of nitrite as a mechanistic bottleneck to inhibit maize growth and productivity

Frontiers in Microbiology
Soil acidification poses a critical threat to global agricultural sustainability, particularly in high-buffering Mollisol (black soil) ecosystems. However, the microbially mediated biochemical mechanisms underlying nitrogen (N) transformation blockages ...

From Surface to Bulk Activation: Tailoring the Porosity and Surface Chemistry of Resorcinol‐Formaldehyde Carbon Sorbents for Atmospheric Water Harvesting

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
A bulk activation route to produce nanoporous carbons for atmospheric water harvesting by incorporating potassium hydroxide during resorcinol‐formaldehyde polycondensation. These high‐oxygen sorbents deliver daily water yields up to 23 L kg−1 day−1 with great cyclability, providing a scalable solution for water production in diverse climates.

Revolutionising Agricultural Sustainability: New ‘Furrow Tillage’ can Mitigate Short‐Term Soil‐to‐Atmosphere CO2 Flux and Promote Soil‐Plant‐Microbe Health

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Furrow tillage resolves the conventional‐vs.‐no‐tillage trade‐off by simultaneously cutting CO2 efflux to 2.0–3.0 g C m−2 d−1 and unlocking high nutrient availability for the rice rhizosphere. This scalable agronomic solution strengthens soil health, enhances plant physiology, reshapes microbial metabolism, and shifts paddy systems toward a net ...

Long-term fertilization regimes modulate dissolved organic matter molecular chemodiversity and greenhouse gas emissions in paddy soil

Biochar
Dissolved organic matter (DOM) is a key factor in soil carbon sequestration and greenhouse gas emissions (GHGs). However, the molecular-level change of soil DOM and the implications of GHGs under different long-term fertilization regimes (LFRs) remain ...
