DOI: 10.1002/ece3.4870
Abstract: Abstract In addition to warming temperatures, Arctic ecosystems are responding to climate change with earlier snowmelt and soil thaw. Earlier snowmelt has been examined infrequently in field experiments, and we lack a comprehensive look at… read more here.

Contributions of freshwater mussels (Unionidae) to nutrient cycling in an urban river: filtration, recycling, storage, and removal
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2017 at "Biogeochemistry"
DOI: 10.1007/s10533-017-0376-z
Abstract: Consumers contribute to nutrient cycling in aquatic ecosystems by nutrient retention in tissues, metabolic transformations and excretion, and promoting microbial processes that remove nutrients (i.e., nitrogen (N) loss via denitrification). Freshwater mussels (Unionidae) form dense… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10661-019-7248-z
Abstract: Acid rain alters nutrient cycling in tea plantations. However, the acquisition of Mg and Ca by plants and their nutrient interactions with Al, N, and P in response to acid rain are poorly understood. Experimental… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s11104-021-05040-6
Abstract: Submerged soils are globally important both in natural and agricultural ecosystems and cover 5–7% of the global land surface. Therefore, processes in submerged soils are important for global biogeochemical cycles. These processes are strongly influenced… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.ecss.2021.107571
Abstract: Abstract Tropical coastal waters are highly dynamic and amongst the most biogeochemically active zones in the ocean. This review compares nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) cycles in temperate and tropical coastal waters. We review the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.foreco.2019.04.032
Abstract: Abstract Forest conversion can affect the diversity and community structure of soil bacteria and fungi. However, little is known about the impact of forest conversion on aboveground-belowground linkages and associated nutrient cycling. To address this… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/1365-2664.13176
Abstract: Agroforestry systems are refuges for biodiversity and provide multiple ecosystem functions and services. Diverse multispecies shade tree canopies are increasingly replaced by monospecific shade, often dominated by non‐native tree species. The loss of tree diversity… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/fwb.13433
Abstract: Animals contribute significantly to nutrient cycling through excretion, but most studies consider their effects under relatively benign abiotic conditions. Disturbances such as drought may alter animals’ nutrient contributions through shifts in species composition and biomass.… read more here.
