Intensified Droughts Will Affect N Gaseous Emissions in Rainfed Agriculture

Rainfed agriculture is one of the most common farming practices in Northeast China and the world, which is vulnerable to future climate change. Both NO and N2O are major contributors to atmospheric...

Researchers Conduct Atmospheric Nitrate Deposition Measurement and Nitrogen Source Analysis

Since the Industrial Revolution, human activities have increased the emission of nitrogen oxides (NOx). NOx can promote the generation of ozone and particle matters, and increase nitrogen depositio...

Different Approaches for Quantifying Crop Nitrogen Use Efficiency May Result in Huge Difference i...

Crop nitrogen use efficiency (NUE) refers to the proportion of nitrogen in fertilisers that is absorbed and used by crops, which is an important indicator to evaluate fertiliser utilisation efficie...

Shifts in Forest Composition Would Reduce the Direct Effects of Climate Change on Fire Regimes in...

Fire is one of the major natural disturbances in the terrestrial ecosystem and profoundly impacts the structure and functions of forest ecosystems. With increases in temperature and extreme weather...

Above-and Below-ground Biodiversity Differently Mediate the Effects of Selective Logging on Tempe...

A new study published in Global Change Biology recently confirmed that selective logging in a reasonable way may make better use of abiotic resources in the forests, promote the growth of preserved...
