Below the leaves: Integrating above‐ and below‐ground phenology for earth‐system predictability
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Almost every aspect of biological systems has phenology—a pattern in activity or function linked to annual cycles. Most terrestrial phenology research focusses on leaves, the onset of leaf out or senescence.

Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Wildfires are disrupting and regenerating forces in nature that affect all ecosystem components. However, the impact of wildfires on soil multitrophic biodiversity and the resulting consequences for ecosystem multifunctionality (EMF) remain poorly understood.

A Seasonal Record of Bacterial Communities in Micritized Carbonate Sediments of the Eastern Red Sea
Evidence of intense micritization is observed throughout Al Kharrar lagoon sediments (0–80 cm). Diverse bacterial communities with putative roles in carbonate cycling display depth‐related shifts. Their stable seasonal presence suggests sustained micritization beyond the photic zone, refining our understanding of the potential role of bacteria in early

A short‐term flood, implemented in a field experiment with sprinkler irrigation in maize production systems, increased soil moisture levels and reduced autoclaved citrate extractable protein, an indicator of soil biological health that reflects organically bound soil nitrogen, and also corresponded to greater differential abundance of soil bacterial ...

What are the carbon services from cover‐crop adoption worth from farmers' perspective?
Abstract We derive shadow prices of carbon services provided by cover crops relative to non‐cover‐crop agricultural practices, accounting for carbon sequestration and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. We model the agricultural technology by integrating crop production, carbon sequestration, and GHG emissions.

Optimal timing and rate of nitrogen fertilizer use: An integrated network technology approach
Abstract Both the rate and timing of crop fertilizer application play an important role in agricultural productivity. However, inefficient fertilizer use can significantly increase production costs, water pollution, and greenhouse gas emissions. To capture both the spatial heterogeneity and dynamic nature of this problem, we develop a multi‐stage ...
