Ecosystem‐Centered Robot Design: Toward Ecoresorbable Sustainability Robots (ESRs)
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Robots exploring natural ecosystems can support monitoring and conservation, but must adopt ecosystem‐centered design to avoid pollution, waste, and damage. This review proposes guidelines for co‐designing ecoresorbable sustainability robots (ESRs), uniting materials, robotics, and ecological contexts in a single framework.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Active restoration increases soil organic carbon stocks by reducing microbial nitrogen limitation. Nitrogen availability promotes particulate to mineral‐associated organic carbon conversion by reducing microbial carbon use efficiency. Passive restoration has no effect on soil organic carbon stocks.

Estimation of N2O emission factors for soils depending on environmental conditions and crop management [PDF]
, 2009 Nitrous oxide (N2O) contributes 8% to anthropogenic global warming, of which about one third are direct emissions of agricultural soils. These N2O emissions are often estimated using the default IPCC 2006 emission factor of 1% of the amount of N applied ...

Principles for Rigorous Design and Application of Synthetic Microbial Communities
Advanced Science, EarlyView.SynComs are artificially designed to enable inter‐species metabolic interactions, metabolic division of labor, and ecological interactions that can elicit phenotypes like colonization stability and environmental adaptation. This systematic review explores the processes used to construct SynComs, the assessment of the mechanisms of metabolic interaction

Environmentally safe use of mineral fertilizers
, 2022 The article is devoted to topical issues of the state of environmental safety when using mineral fertiliz-ers, and also investigates modern ways to reduce their impact on the environment. Mineral fertilizers are one of the most effective means of increasing soil fertility, productivity and improving the quality of crop production, therefore, we can ...
