Wildfire is a major driver of nitrogen (N) cycling and export from terrestrial to aquatic systems. While fire is a natural process in many watersheds, it can still degrade water quality by rapidly flushing N to streams. This can be particularly problematic in watersheds that experience high le...
Some ecoregions had smaller sample sizes (e.g., temperate Sierras at n = 797), while some had very large sample sizes (e.g., Northwest forested mountains at n = 209,173). Statistical power is higher when sample sizes are larger, so we were inherently more likely to detect ...

The Boreal Zone covers about one-third of the global forested area (approximately 16 million km2) and is primarily located in Canada, Alaska, Russia and Scandinavia (Conard et al., 2002; Deluca and Boisvenue, 2012). About 80% of these forests are located in upland soils (i.e. well-drai...

Epiphyllum is closely related to the dragonfruit cactus (Selenicereus undatus). Pollinated orchid cactus flowers will produce bright pink fruits that look just like mini dragonfruits when you cut them open. Some of them taste pretty good, others not so much, but they’re all technically edible...
