Climate and geology overwrite land use effects on soil organic nitrogen cycling on a continental scale [PDF]
Biogeosciences, 2022 Soil fertility and plant productivity are globally constrained by N availability. Proteins are the largest N reservoir in soils, and the cleavage of proteins into small peptides and amino acids has been shown to be the rate-limiting step in the ...

Water use efficiency of China\u27s terrestrial ecosystems and responses to drought [PDF]
, 2015 Water use efficiency (WUE) measures the trade-off between carbon gain and water loss of terrestrial ecosystems, and better understanding its dynamics and controlling factors is essential for predicting ecosystem responses to climate change.
