The burning of fossil fuels has disrupted the nitrogen cycle by altering that amount of nitrogen in the biosphere, according to scientists from Brown University and the University of Washington ...

We are thrilled to announce the launch of Nitrogen Cycling – a new peer-reviewed journal dedicated to advancing research on ...

New research shows that the large-scale evolution of microbes was mostly complete 2.5 billion years ago, and that included the beginning of the modern aerobic nitrogen cycle.

Changing Global Nitrogen Cycle Impacting Human Health, Says Colorado University-led Study Date: June 13, 2003 Source: University Of Colorado At Boulder Summary: Despite greatly increasing food ...

Dr. Eric Galbraith– The Ocean’s Nitrogen Cycle As the philosopher-scientist James Lovelock pointed out, the Earth’s biosphere is a lot like a single organism.

Scientists have long thought most nitrogen in Earth’s ecosystems comes from the air, but new research shows it also is released as rocks weather. This could boost plant growth and help sequester ...

Carbon cycle–climate feedbacks are expected to diminish the size of the terrestrial carbon sink over the next century. Model simulations suggest that nitrogen availability is likely to play a ...

Ecological feedbacks to excess nitrogen can inhibit crop growth, increase allergenic pollen production, and potentially affect the dynamics of several vector-borne diseases, including West Nile virus, ...
