In Situ Evidence for Quantitative Nitrogen Fixation in a Temperate Perennial Grass EcosystemNARA Subscribed
Biological nitrogen (N) fixation is an important terrestrial ecosystem N input that occurs in both symbiotic and non-symbiotic associations with plants. Non-symbiotic nitrogen fixation (NSNF) has been documented in many places, including soils, but the magnitude of its inputs, along with drivers of NSNF rates, remains uncertain due to methodological challenges. We measured NSNF by applying a 15 N 2 tracer to field mesocosms th...
Groundwater is the Earth’s largest reservoir of available freshwater. As climate change and increasing anthropogenic pressures continue to affect its availability and quality, the discipline of hydrogeology is evolving rapidly. Training enough professionals capable of understanding and managing groundwater resources effectively is therefore more critical than ever. However, there is a perceived global shortage of adequately tr...
Understanding future changes in cumulative water deficit (CWD) is essential for assessing the vulnerability of Amazonian ecosystems to climate change. This study evaluates the performance of CMIP6 models in simulating CWD in the southwestern Amazon from 1985 to 2024 and projects future changes through 2100 under three emission scenarios (SSP1‐2.6, SSP3‐7.0, SSP5‐8.5). CWD was calculated using a fixed evapotranspiration thresho...
SNAPSHOT USA 2024: Year 6 of the Coordinated National Camera Trap Survey of the United StatesNARA Subscribed
Motivation SNAPSHOT USA is an annual, multi‐contributor camera trap survey of mammals across the United States. The growing SNAPSHOT USA dataset is intended for tracking the spatial and temporal responses of mammal populations to changes in land use, land cover and climate. These data will be useful for exploring the drivers of spatial and temporal changes in relative abundance and distribution, as well as the impacts of speci...
A Radiocarbon‐Based Framework to Assess Soil Organic Carbon Persistence and Vulnerability Across Land‐Use TypesNARA Subscribed
Soil organic carbon (SOC) can persist from days to millennia but remains vulnerable to carbon (C) loss upon disturbances, depending on environmental conditions and mode of stabilization. Understanding drivers of persistence and vulnerability is crucial to assess soil C sequestration as well as potential SOC losses due to changes in climate and land use. Here, we investigate SOC persistence and vulnerability in five land‐use ty...
Synergistic Effects of a Microbial Amendment and Crushed Basalt: Soil Geochemical and Microbial ResponsesNARA Subscribed
Over geologic timescales, the natural weathering of silicate minerals in soils and regolith regulates atmospheric CO 2 . Although this process is slow relative to anthropogenic emissions, several strategies have been proposed to accelerate this process for climate mitigation. These include the application of finely‐ground silicate rock to increase mineral surface area (enhanced weathering, EW) and the use of microbes that cata...
Explosive Byproduct Gas Transport Through Sorptive GeomediaNARA Subscribed
In the last 2 decades, UK research institutes have led a wide range of developments in marine data assimilation (MDA), covering areas from operational applications in physics and biogeochemistry to fundamental theory. We highlight the emergence of strong collaboration in the UK MDA community over this period and the increasing unification of its tools. We focus on identifying the MDA stakeholder community and current/future ar...
