Context-dependent effects of grassland degradation on soil nitrogen cycling processes
Communications Earth & EnvironmentGrassland degradation, as a result of climate change and anthropogenic activities, is reported to impair soil nitrogen cycling processes. However, there is little evidence on the spatial patterns of the degradation effects across broad environmental ...

The impact of agricultural soil erosion on biogeochemical cycling [PDF]
, 2010 Soils are the main terrestrial reservoir of nutrients, such as nitrogen and phosphorus, and of organic carbon. Synthesizing earlier studies, we find that the mobilization and deposition of agricultural soils can significantly alter nutrient and carbon ...

Current Biology, 2016 Nitrogen is the fourth most abundant element in cellular biomass, and it comprises the majority of Earth's atmosphere. The interchange between inert dinitrogen gas (N2) in the extant atmosphere and 'reactive nitrogen' (those nitrogen compounds that support, or are products of, cellular metabolism and growth) is entirely controlled by microbial ...

The microbial nitrogen cycle [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2014 Nitrogen is an essential element in biological systems, and one that often limits production in both aquatic and terrestrial systems. Due to its requirement in biological macromolecules, its acquisition and cycling have the potential to structure microbial communities, as well as to control productivity on the ecosystem scale.

Geophysical Research Letters, 2023 Although terrestrial biosphere models (TBMs) with and without nitrogen cycling successfully reproduce the historical terrestrial carbon sink, the influence of nitrogen cycling under interacting and intensifying global change drivers in the future is ...

Nitrogen cycling in sheep [PDF]
Proceedings of the Nutrition Society, 1973 Introduction Many of the difficulties in predicting the response of ruminants to supplementation of low-protein diets with non-protein nitrogen (NPN) substances arise because there is a lack of information concerning the quantities of N that recycle between the tissues and the N pools in the digestive tract. Various aspects of N mctabolism in ruminants

Sugarcane cultivation altered soil nitrogen cycling microbial processes and decreased nitrogen bioavailability in tropical Australia [PDF]
, 2023 Purpose: Land use conversion of natural ecosystems to intensive agriculture can alter soil biogeochemical processes and nutrient cycling, while increasing potential for land degradation.

Sediments nitrogen cycling influenced by submerged macrophytes growing in winter
Water Science and Technology, 2021 Restoration of submerged macrophytes is one of the important measures for ecological treatment of eutrophic lakes. The changes in physical and chemical conditions caused by submerged macrophytes also affect the process of benthic nitrogen cycling.
