Stimulation of ammonia oxidizer and denitrifier abundances by nitrogen loading: Poor predictability for increased soil N2O emission

Yong Zhang, Feng Zhang, Diego Abalos, Yiqi Luo, Dafeng Hui, Bruce A. Hungate, Pablo Garcia-Palacios, Yakov Kuzyakov, Jorgen Eivind Olesen, Uffe Jorgensen, Ji Chen

Summary: The study found that nitrogen loading significantly increased the abundance of ammonia oxidizers and denitrifiers in soil, but this did not directly correlate with changes in soil N2O emission. Abiotic factors such as mean annual precipitation, soil pH, soil C:N ratio, and ecosystem type were key in regulating nitrogen-induced changes in soil N2O emission.

Where greenspace matters most: A systematic review of urbanicity, greenspace, and physical health

Matthew H. E. M. Browning, Alessandro Rigolon, Olivia McAnirlin, Hyunseo (Violet) Yoon

Summary: Greenspace in urban areas may have greater protective health effects than elsewhere. Urban dwellers experience more environmental harmful exposures, attentional demands, and stressors than their suburban/rural counterparts. Stronger greenspace-health associations in more urban areas might be explained in part by the mechanistic pathways underlying these associations.

Number of growth days and not length of the growth period determines radial stem growth of temperate trees

Sophia Etzold, Frank Sterck, Arun K. Bose, Sabine Braun, Nina Buchmann, Werner Eugster, Arthur Gessler, Ansgar Kahmen, Richard L. Peters, Yann Vitasse, Lorenz Walthert, Kasia Zieminska, Roman Zweifel

Summary: This study on the daily radial growth of 160 individuals of seven temperate tree species in Switzerland over 8 years revealed that growth is influenced by day length, air, and soil moisture. The number of days with growth largely determines annual growth, with growth being constrained by day length. Researchers call for incorporating these non-linear intra-annual and species-specific growth dynamics into tree and forest models to improve predictions under climate change.

Summary: Biological invasions have significant negative impacts on marine Mediterranean ecosystems, biodiversity, and human health. This study reviewed the impacts of marine biological invasions in the Mediterranean Sea and identified 103 alien and cryptogenic species with both negative and positive effects. The main mechanisms of negative effects were competition for resources, ecosystem engineering, and predation. Positive impacts were more common than negative impacts on ecosystem services, while only negative impacts were recorded for human health. There was significant variation among Mediterranean ecoregions in terms of impact mechanisms and the taxonomic identity of impacting species. The magnitude of impact did not appear to increase with residence time. Holistic approaches and experimental research are crucial for understanding and managing biological invasions.
