Effects of Increasing the Nitrogen–Phosphorus Ratio on the Structure and Function of the Soil Microbial Community in the Yellow River Delta [PDF]
Nitrogen (N) deposition from human activities leads to an imbalance in the N and phosphorus (P) ratios of natural ecosystems, which has a series of negative impacts on ecosystems.

Salinity Effects on Microbial Derived-C of Coastal Wetland Soils in the Yellow River Delta
Microorganisms play a crucial role in regulating the turnover and transformation of soil organic carbon (SOC), whereas microbial contribution to SOC formation and storage is still unclear in coastal wetlands. In this study, we collected topsoil (0–20 cm)
