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...
Dissolved organic matter (DOM) plays a vital role in biogeochemical processes and in determining the responses of soil organic matter (SOM) to global change.Fig. A conceptual diagram illustrating the oxygen-induced dissolved organic matter (DOM) dynamics and the underline mechanisms.

The contamination of soil with organic pollutants has been accelerated by agricultural and industrialThe contamination of soil with organic pollutants has been accelerated by agricultural and industrial development and poses a major threat to global ecosystems and human health. Various chemical and physical techniques have been developed to remediate soils contaminated with organic pollutant...
The extensive use of organic chemicals has resulted in the widespread distribution of hydrocarbon contaminFig. Graphical abstract
The extensive use of organic chemicals has resulted in the widespread distribution of hydrocarbon contaminants (HCs) in many ecosystems on a global scale. Many subterranean ecosystems can rapidly become anaerobic or even methanogenic following hydrocarbon contamina...
Adsorption and reduction techniques are the main approaches for Hg2+ remediation. The delocalizedFig. Graphical abstract
Adsorption and reduction techniques are the main approaches for Hg2+ remediation. The delocalized electrons of nonlinear optical materials (NLOM) can be used as electron donors, while reduction remediation material based on this has not yet been reported. In this w...
