Adsorption behavior and the potential risk of As(V) in soils: exploring the effects of representative surfactants
Arsenic contamination in soils poses a critical global challenge, yet the influence of surfactants on arsenic adsorption behavior is often underestimated. This study aims to investigate the effects of three re...

Protecting river eco-hydrological processes: insights from water temperature studies
Water temperature (Tw) plays a critical role in the aquatic ecosystem of rivers. Studying the response process and mechanisms of Tw to climate change and human activities is crucial for assessing the sustainable ...

Evaluation methods of heavy metal pollution in soils based on enzyme activities: A review
Soil enzyme activities have been suggested as suitable indicators for the evaluation of metal contamination because they are susceptible to microbial changes caused by heavy metal stress and are strictly relat...

Atractylodes lancea volatiles induce physiological responses in neighboring peanut plant during intercrop**
Plant volatiles serve as airborne semiochemicals, bridging the interactions between the plant and environment. Intercrop** of a Chinese medicinal herb, Atractylodes lancea, with peanut plants greatly improves p...

Persistent organic fertilization reinforces soil-borne disease suppressiveness of rhizosphere bacterial community
Soil-borne diseases are an increasingly serious threat to agriculture systems. Organic fertilization would improve soil quality and microbial community as well, and thus is appreciated a promising control stra...

Open AccessGlobal woodland structure from local interactions: new nearest-neighbour functions for understanding the ontogenesis of global forest structure
A number of hypotheses and theories, such as the Janzen-Connell hypothesis, have been proposed to explain the natural maintenance of biodiversity in tropical and temperate forest ecosystems. However, to date t...

Peanut plant growth was altered by monocrop**-associated microbial enrichment of rhizosphere microbiome
Repeated planting of the same or closely-related crop species often results in negative soil feedbacks, manifested as reduced plant growth. This is commonly attributed to accumulation of plant pathogenic organ...

The optimum Se application time for reducing Cd uptake by rice (Oryza sativa L.) and its mechanism
The inhibitory effect of selenium (Se) on cadmium accumulation in brown rice (BR-Cd) is controversial, which may be related to the Se application time. The optimum Se application time for reducing the BR-Cd is...

Effects of sediment-borne nutrient and litter quality on macrophyte decomposition and nutrient release
Macrophyte decomposition is a critical process that affects carbon and nutrient cycling, and energy flow, although the majority of the details involved in the process remain unclear. For the present study, a l...

Root-induced changes in radial oxygen loss, rhizosphere oxygen profile, and nitrification of two rice cultivars in Chinese red soil regions
To evaluate the external and internal morphological differences of roots that might influence rice root radial oxygen loss (ROL) and the corresponding rhizosphere nitrification activity, growth characteristics...
