Functional Ecology, EarlyView.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract The stoichiometric imbalance caused by nitrogen (N) deposition typically exacerbates phosphorus (P) limitation in plants. However, it remains unclear whether this effect extends to soil microbes, particularly those in the rhizosphere.

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Grazing exclusion is widely used for grassland restoration but often improves productivity slowly, whereas nitrogen (N) addition can rapidly boost productivity yet may erode plant diversity and community stability over the long term.

Phosphorus gradient yields threshold MAOC response governed by microbial and stoichiometric controls
Functional Ecology, EarlyView.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Phosphorus (P) availability is a key factor that mediates the formation of mineral‐associated organic carbon (MAOC) in soils, yet reported responses to P fertilization are often inconsistent.

Herbivore and mesocarnivore carcasses trigger divergent short‐term changes in soil properties
Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.Scavengers reshape nutrient cycles in soils under carrion. Compared to herbivore carcasses, smaller but longer‐lasting carnivore remains boost nutrient levels and microbial activity in dry soils. Abstract Animal corpses act as pulses of organic matter (OM) and serve a key zoogeochemical role by providing localized nutrient inputs to soils and thereby ...

Cuttings, Combings, Fettlings and Flock: Gender and Australian Wool ‘Waste’, 1900–1950
Gender &History, EarlyView.ABSTRACT As Australia's wool industry produced vast amounts of fine fleece from the nineteenth century, the wool processing and clothes manufacturing industries generated waste – products like cuttings, combings, fettlings and flock. Salvaged and then sold to waste merchants, these and other materials had a second life.

Using alcohol fuels in dual fuel operation of compression ignition engines: a review [PDF]
, 2016 Because of global warming and increasing air pollution, alternative fuels are increasingly being considered for use in internal combustion engines (ICEs). Among the alternatives, alcohol fuels seem very interesting.

Archaeometry, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Lake sediments are natural archives of past environmental dynamics and how these systems have responded to past climate variability. Sediment geochemistry, governed by local geology and climate processes, is unique to each lake‐catchment and geochemical proxies must be validated for each study site.
