Iron/Manganese Oxide‐Bound Nitrogen Suppresses Microbial Mediated Nitrate Reduction in Soil
ABSTRACT Nitrogen cycling plays a pivotal role in sustaining ecosystem productivity and stability, while the chemical forms of nitrogen in soils critically influence both its efficiency and pathways. In this study, farmland soils from the Anning River Basin—an important watershed in Southwest China—were investigated to examine the regulatory effects of

ABSTRACT Cereal‐legume rotation is regarded as an important agricultural management strategy for enhancing soil organic carbon (SOC) and improving soil ecosystem multifunctionality (EMF). The soil microbial carbon pump (MCP) exerts a regulatory effect on the production of microbial necromass as well as the SOC accumulation.

ABSTRACT Cropland distribution is often shaped by historical cultivation patterns rather than natural suitability, leading to mismatches between actual land use and agricultural production potential. However, their extent and spatial characteristics remain insufficiently understood in the North China Plain, one of China's most important grain‐producing

ABSTRACT Cadmium (Cd) contamination of acidic soils poses a significant threat to ecosystem stability and crop health. This study evaluated the potential of biochar derived from the halophyte Salicornia europaea (SBC), a salt‐tolerant plant that grows on saline‐alkali marginal land, to remediate Cd‐contaminated acidic soil.

ABSTRACT Promoting the green transition of farmland use (GTFU) in major grain‐producing areas is essential for ensuring food security and advancing sustainable agricultural development. However, existing studies on GTFU have predominantly relied on static cross‐sectional analyses, with insufficient attention paid to its nonlinear driving mechanisms. To

ABSTRACT Conventional management of heavy metal contaminated soil faces a dual challenge. Safe utilization maintains agricultural production without removing pollutants, whereas phytoremediation cleans the soil but cannot guarantee the planted crop safety.

Bacillus subtilis Mobilizes Phosphorus by Reshaping P Pools, Sorption, and Enzyme Activities
ABSTRACT Low phosphorus (P) availability constrains crop production in saline‐alkaline soils of Xinjiang, China. We tested whether Bacillus subtilis (B. subtilis) mobilizes soil P by altering P fractions, sorption–desorption, and P‐cycling enzymes in a saline‐alkaline cotton soil. Under conventional fertilization, B. subtilis was applied at 0 (B0), 15 (

ABSTRACT Lateral carbon transport induced by soil erosion is a key component of the global carbon cycle. Over the past 50 years, ecological restoration projects in the Loess Plateau of China have increased vegetation coverage. However, the effects of land use, precipitation variability, and landscape factors on lateral carbon transport remain unclear ...
