Nitrogen is one of the primary nutrients critical for the survival of all living organisms. Although nitrogen is very abundant in the atmosphere, it is largely inaccessible in this form to most ...

A new study has revealed how tiny microbes in rivers and wetlands across China help clean up excess nitrogen pollution, offering fresh insights into the health of freshwater ecosystems and the global ...

For the first time, climate scientists from across the country have successfully incorporated the nitrogen cycle into global simulations for climate change, questioning previous assumptions regarding ...

An international research team led by Aalborg University with contributions from the University of Vienna has systematically mapped the microbiome of an entire country for the first time. In the study ...

In the nitrogen cycle, phytoplankton and other marine plants turn nitrate (NO 3) into organic nitrogen during photosynthesis. The organic nitrogen sinks into the deep ocean, where microbes "eat" the ...

A research team recently conducted an extensive study on nitrogen removal processes in riverine wetlands across China, focusing on the microbial processes of denitrification and anaerobic ammonium ...

Presented virtually on Zoom in Maeder Hall at 12:30 p.m. Lunch will be available in Maeder Hall lobby at 12:00 noon. Hybrid biological | inorganic (HBI) constructs have been created to use sunlight, ...

Understanding the role of soil microbial communities in coupled carbon and nitrogen cycles has become an area of great interest as we strive to understand how global change will influence ecosystem ...

A research team reveals that introducing duckweed (Lemna minor) into rice paddies sharply reduces nitrogen oxide emissions but simultaneously ...
