Drivers of the global phosphorus cycle over geological time
Phosphorus is a key limiting nutrient of terrestrial and marine primary production. Thus, the global phosphorus cycle is intimately linked with the…

Seasonal productivity of the equatorial Atlantic shaped by distinct wind-driven processes
The eastern equatorial Atlantic hosts a productive marine ecosystem that depends on upward supply of nitrate, the primary limiting nutrient in this…
Contribution of sandy beaches to the global marine silicon cycle
Dissolved silicon levels in the ocean, which can shape marine carbon cycling owing to silicon’s role as a nutrient, are largely controlled by inf…
Impact of climate-induced water-table drawdown on carbon and nitrogen sequestration in a Kobresia-dominated peatland on the central Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau
Peatlands on the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau (QTP) represent one of the world’s largest reservoirs of soil organic carbon (C) and nitrogen (N), but t…
