A new study finds that a nitrification inhibitor outperforms biochar in increasing crop yields and reducing nitrous oxide ...

Farmers around the world rely on nitrogen fertilizers to sustain crop production, but in many alkaline soils a large share of ...

Three methods for assaying nitrification and denitrification were compared in agricultural field plots in the Southeastern USA. Nitrification was measured using the chlorate inhibition enzyme assay, ...

We investigated microbial pathways of nitrogen transformation in highly permeable sediments from the German Bight (South-East North Sea) by incubating sediment cores percolated with 15N-labeled ...

But different microbes have distinct roles to play, and environmental factors influence activity. Under our feet, in the soil, is a wealth of microbial activity. Just like humans have different ...

Sebastian Haas is a CERE.OCEAN PhD cadidate who leads the research of nitrogen cycle from the Bedford Basin Time Series. Nitrogen is a major nutrient supporting the growth of phytoplankton, which are ...

Under our feet, in the soil, is a wealth of microbial activity. Just like humans have different metabolisms and food choices, so do those microbes. In fact, microbes play an important role in making ...
