Avoiding excessive agricultural nitrogen (N) use without compromising yields has long been a priority for both research and government policy in China. Fig. 1: Schematic illustration of the research workflow.
Fig. 2: Key area-based performance responses to different N application strategies in different subregions of China.

Agricultural food production is a main driver of global greenhouse gas emissions, with unclear pathways towards carbon neutrality. Fig. The IPEG–CH4–N system can help staple food production achieve carbon neutrality Staple food production is an important source of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, due to high methane (CH4) and nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from flooded paddy fields and intensive use of nitrogen fertili...

Soil biodiversity is extremely complex and diverse .The research team developed a mathematical model to test whether the incorporation of pH could improve the capacity to explain the variation in bacterial diversity at different spatial scales in soil .At the community level , they modeled pa... Soil biodiversity is extremely complex and diverse, with millions of species and billions of individual organisms being found within a handful of soil. Disentangling the main mechanisms determining the biogeographical patterns of bacterial diversity has remained a considerable challenge (Bah...
While the contribution of biodiversity to supporting multiple ecosystem functions is well established in natural ecosystems, the relationship of the above- and below-ground diversity with ecosystem multifunctionality remains virtually unknown in urban greenspaces.Fig. The distribution of soil sampling locations in urban greenspaces.While the contribution of biodiversity to supporting multiple ecosystem functions is well established in natural ecosystems, the relationship of the above- and below-ground diversity with ecosystem multifunctionality remain...
