Denitrification has been considered a major process removing available N from ecosystems and also a major mechanism leading N limitation of ecosystems. However, the denitrification rates are diffic...

Research have shown that the rhizosphere priming effects (RPEs) apparently affect the organic matter decomposition and nutrient (especially Nitrogen) cycling.

N deposition is one of the important factors affecting the global change. Research shows that the N deposition will increase continually in the coming decades. By simulation of N deposition experim...

Freeze-thaw cycle is ubiquitous phenomenon at high elevations and temperate zone. On North-hemisphere, 55% terrestrial area experienced seasonal freeze-thaw cycles.

Ongoing global environmental variations have triggered productive research aiming to explore the changes in ecosystem functions.
