Subsoiling Combined With Winter Active Italian Ryegrass Can Reduce Nitrous Oxide Emissions Without Increasing Nitrate Leaching: Evidence From Lysimeter and Field Plot Trials

Soil Use and Management, Volume 41, Issue 4, October‐December 2025.
ABSTRACT Subsoiling is a common practice for improving soil structure and has recently been recognised for its potential to reduce nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions. However, its impact on nitrate (NO3−–N) leaching must also be considered if it is to be used as a mitigation strategy. This study investigated N2O emissions, NO3−–N leaching and grass yield in

Investigating the Atmospheric Microbial Ecosystem Through Theory, Bioenergetics, and Numerical Modeling: A Breath of Fresh Air for Aeromicrobiology

Journal of Geophysical Research: Biogeosciences, Volume 130, Issue 8, August 2025.
Abstract The atmosphere may constitute the Earth's largest microbial ecosystem, yet it remains the least understood. While microorganisms can persist and may even thrive in the polyextremes of the Earth's atmosphere, it is still unknown whether the atmosphere sustains an active microbial community.

Biogeographic Patterns and Ecological Roles of Microorganisms in Sediments Along an Estuarine Salinity Gradient

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 17, Issue 4, August 2025.
From the river coastal to the adjacent sea waters, the diversity characteristics, community assembly processes, functional potential and community compositions of sedimentary microbial communities exhibit significant changes with increasing salinity levels.

Lithology-driven soil properties control of N2O production by ammonia oxidizers in subtropical forest soils

Geoderma
Lithology can strongly influence soil's physical and chemical properties, significantly affecting soil nitrogen (N) transformation rates. Ammonia-oxidizing archaea (AOA), ammonia-oxidizing bacteria (AOB) and complete ammonia oxidizers (comammox ...

DNA- and RNA-SIP Reveal Nitrospira spp. as Key Drivers of Nitrification in Groundwater-Fed Biofilters

mBio, 2019
Nitrification, the oxidative process converting ammonia to nitrite and nitrate, is driven by microbes and plays a central role in the global nitrogen cycle.

Exploring Sulfate as an Alternative Electron Acceptor: A Potential Strategy to Mitigate N2O Emissions in Upland Arable Soils

Global Change Biology, Volume 31, Issue 8, August 2025.
This study explored the use of sulfate‐based soil amendments as a new method to mitigate N2O—a powerful greenhouse gas—from agricultural soils. Laboratory and field experiments showed sulfate treatments significantly lowered N2O emissions without negatively affecting crop yields, mainly by altering soil microbial processes.

Contrasting response of comammox Nitrospira, ammonia oxidising bacteria, and archaea to soil pH and nitrogen inputs

Science of The Total Environment
This study aimed to investigate the effect of soil pH change, and nitrogen amendment on ammonia oxidiser abundance and comammox Nitrospira community composition. The experimental design used soil mesocosms placed in a temperature-controlled incubator for 90 days.

Sediments From a Seasonally Euxinic Coastal Ecosystem Show High Nitrogen Cycling Potential

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 27, Issue 7, July 2025.
The nitrogen cycling potential of sediments from seasonally euxinic Lake Grevelingen was investigated through incubation experiments and 16S rRNA amplicon and shotgun metagenome sequencing. The sediments have a high potential for nitrification, denitrification, and DNRA, but not for anammox. ABSTRACT Coastal ecosystems are susceptible to eutrophication
