Low pH of a High Carbon Gleysol Contributes to Nitrification Inhibition Resulting in Low N2O Soil Emissions and Limited Effectiveness of Nitrification Inhibitors [PDF]
, 2020 Nitrous oxide (N2O) is a potent greenhouse gas, and drained tropical/subtropical wetland soils that are high in carbon (C) make a substantial contribution to global anthropogenic N2O emissions.

Dissipation of nitrapyrin (nitrification inhibitor) in subtropical soils [PDF]
, 2019 Nitrapyrin (2-chloro-6-(trichloromethyl)pyridine) is a specific nitrification inhibitor, applied in soils for reducing the nitrification process of nitrogenous fertilizers.

Nitrification and growth of autotrophic nitrifying bacteria and Thaumarchaeota in the coastal North Sea [PDF]
Biogeosciences, 2013 Nitrification and the associated growth of autotrophic nitrifiers, as well as the contributions of bacteria and Thaumarchaeota to total autotrophic C-fixation by nitrifiers were investigated in the Dutch coastal North Sea from October 2007 to March 2008.

Nitrification in acid tea soils and a neutral grassland soil: Effects of nitrification inhibitors and inorganic salts [PDF]
, 1985 Nitrification was much slower in five strongly acid (pH 4.0–4.3) soils from tea plantations in Sri Lanka than in a near-neutral grassland soil from the U.K., suggesting that the nitrifiers in these tea soils are close to the lower limit of their pH range.

Effectiveness of Nitrification Inhibition on Various Species of Brachiaria Grass Rhizosphere
E3S Web of Conferences, 2018 Nitrification has the potential to decrease the efficiency of nitrogen utilization by plants. The use of nitrifying inhibitory chemicals proved to be effective in controlling nitrification, but also affects beneficial soil microbes.

Identification of nitrification inhibition in maize to mitigate soil nitrogen loss
Plant, Soil and Environment, 2023 Nitrogen dynamics in soil produce N2O emissions. To decrease N2O emissions and conserve N, recent studies have focused on chemicals derived from root exudates that inhibit nitrification.

Biochemistry of nitrification in soil. 3. Nitrification of various organic nitrogen compounds [PDF]
, 1946 [First paragraph] It has been established (Lees & Quastel, 1946b) that nitrification of ammonium salts in soil takes place at the soil surface, at the expense of NH+4 combined or adsorbed in the form of a base-exchange complex.

Biochemistry of nitrification in soil. 1. Kinetics of, and the effects of poisons on, soil nitrification as studied by a soil perfusion technique [PDF]
, 1946 [First paragraph] Nitrification is the process whereby nitrogen, in the form of the ammonium cation or in organic combination, is converted into the nitrate anion.

Winter nitrification in ice-covered lakes.
PLoS ONE, 2019 With changes in ice cover duration, nutrient loading, and anoxia risk, it is important to understand the mechanisms that control nitrogen cycling and oxygen depletion in lakes through winter.
