Nitrogen is one of the primary nutrients critical for the survival of all living organisms. Although nitrogen is very abundant in the atmosphere, it is largely inaccessible in this form to most ...
In a warming corner of Iceland, tiny soil microbes are quietly rewriting one of Earth’s most fundamental life-support systems ...
The nitrogen cycle is a biogeochemical process encompassing the biologically mediated and abiotic transformations of nitrogen between atmospheric, terrestrial, and aquatic reservoirs, enabling its ...
Dr. Tanja Stratmann’s project, titled “Nitrogen Cycling in Modern Sponges with Clues About Their Role in Past Oceans” (SPYCLING for short), focuses on marine sponges as representatives of the oldest ...
How does climate change influence the planet’s nitrogen cycle? This is what a recent study published in Nitrogen Cycling hopes to address as a team of researchers investigated climate change’s impact ...
The emergence of a biogeochemical cycle -- From adaption to innovation -- Innovation within an ecological limit -- N and the emergence of market capitalism -- N and the rise of science -- Bypassing an ...
A growing body of research suggests that integrating aquatic animals into rice farming could significantly improve nitrogen efficiency while reducing ...
Ammonia-oxidizing archaea (AOA) are some of the most abundant microorganisms in the ocean and play a key role in nitrogen cycling. Yet, despite their ubiquity, scientists have long puzzled over how ...
