Wetlands have long been drained for human use, thereby strongly affecting greenhouse gas fluxes, flood control, nutrient cycling and biodiversity1,2. Nevertheless, the global extent of natural wetland loss remains remarkably uncertain3. Here, we reconstruct the spatial distribution and timing of wetland...
It has long been hypothesized that climate can modify both the pattern and magnitude of erosion in mountainous landscapes, thereby controlling morphology, rates of deformation, and potentially modulating global carbon and nutrient cycles through weathering feedbacks. Although conceptually appealing, geologic ...
The supply of nutrients into the euphotic zone from the interior ocean is thus controlled by a spatially varying combination of turbulent mixing across the base of surface mixed layer, the seasonal cycle of the mixed layer depth, and net upwelling. The role of isopycnal mixing on nutrient and ...
Weil has been active in soil science research since 1972 and has made many contributions in the areas of nutrient cycling and management, environmental impact of soil management, and assessment of soil quality. His current research is focused on the assessment and improvement of soil quality and ...
(EPS) secreted by sessile microorganisms on the plastic surfaces could generate O2and nutrient gradients in the plastisphere biofilms12,13. As a consequence, microbes residing within the self-produced matrix of the plastisphere likely exhibit biogeochemical features different from their planktonic ...
Anthropogenic climate warming is amplified in the Arctic, impacting the Arctic carbon cycle and its role in regulating climate and global biogeochemical cycles. In this Review, we provide a quantitative and comprehensive overview of the present-day Arcti
Lower trophic level organisms such as sediment microorganisms are often ignored when assessing environmental impacts even though they play a key role in nutrient and geochemical cycling that can impact the whole lake ecosystem. Thus, studying the impacts of mine tailings spills on lake sediment ...
Aquatic macrophytes play an important role in maintaining the balance of lake ecosystems and supporting socioeconomic functions [1]. For example, macrophytes stabilize sediments, regulate the nutrient cycle [2], slow water currents and maintain fishery production [3]. Studies have indicated that aquati...
