Microplastics (MPs) are regarded as potential persistent organic pollutants owing to their small size and low degradability. However, the effect of MP pollution on greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from farmland soil is yet unclear. Therefore, a series microcosm experiments were set up using polyvinyl chloride (PVC), polypropylene (PP), polyethylene (PE), polystyrene (PS), polyester (PET) at concentrations 0.25 %, 2 7 % (w/w). Each treatment had three replicates. This experiment was carried out...

Abstract More than half of the world's population is nourished by crops fertilized with synthetic nitrogen (N) fertilizers. However, N fertilization a major source anthropogenic emissions, augmenting carbon footprint (CF). To date, no global quantification CF induced main grain has been performed, and quantifications at national scale have neglected CO 2 assimilated plants. A first cradle‐to‐grave life cycle assessment was performed to quantify fertilizers' production, transportation,...

With the rapid development of economy, acid rain has become one major environmental problems that endanger human health. Being largest developing country, caused by are increasing concern with industrialization and urbanization in China. Recently, many researchers have focused on rain. To better understand temporal spatial dynamics China, monitoring data from 1998 to 2018 were studied using ArcGIS 10.2. The results show proportion cities, frequency, area decreasing, however, situation still...

Abstract Rapid development in industrialization and urbanization causes serious environmental issues, of which acid rain is one the quintessential hazards, negatively affecting soil ecology. Liming has been investigated for a long time as most effective amendment to alter adverse effects acidity resulting from rain. Herein, this study tested biochar produced invasive plants an alternative hypothesized that can maintain better availability macronutrients under than liming by improving...

Pomacea canaliculata is native to South America and has become a widely distributed agricultural environmental pest in southern China. Previous studies have primarily focused on the tolerance of P. various factors, compared non-native invasive with natives or non-invasive congeners. However, there been no research concentrated variation innate growth reproductive characteristics between its invaded areas. To address this gap, we conducted first comparison experiment from their area...

Growing evidence has suggested a strong link between gut microbiota and host fitness, yet our understanding of the assembly mechanisms governing remains limited. Here, we collected invasive native freshwater snails coexisting at four independent sites in Guangdong, China. We used high-throughput sequencing to study processes their microbiota. Our results revealed significant differences diversity composition snails. Specifically, exhibited lower alpha fewer enriched bacteria, with...

Acid rain and invasive plants have quintessential adverse impacts on terrestrial ecosystems. As an environmentally safe method for disposal of plants, we tested the effect biochar produced from these in altering soil deterioration under acid as compared with lime. Given feedstock type properties response to added biochar, hypothesized that microbial community functions would respond differently charred rain. A pot experiment was conducted examine microbiomes Blackjack (Biden Pilosa), Wedelia...

Soil acidification is a severe environmental problem around the world. pH buffering capacity (pHBC) intrinsic factor affecting soil rate and intensively impacted by anthropogenic natural conditions. However, composite assessments of effects land use type on pHBC are still limited. Therefore, we collected samples five types (red soil, lateritic red latosol, paddy acid sulphate soil) from two patterns agricultural adjacent forest fields at different depths (0–10 cm, 10–20 cm 20–30 cm) in South...

Integrated rice-animal co-culture can provide a sustainable alternative to limited arable land and freshwater resources, ensuring global food supply in complementary form. Although most studies have focused on the effect of systems soil water properties rice yield, results usually differ from various case studies. The high variability requires thorough assessment different modes. In this meta-analysis, 191 pairs observations 80 were collected explore potential effects six modes paddy...

Recent studies have indicated that the invasive apple snail (Pomacea canaliculata) exhibits tolerance to salinity levels present in coastal agricultural soils, suggesting snails could potentially invade salt-affected areas. However, effects of alien Pomacea canaliculata invasion on saline such as terms soil properties, microbial diversity, and abundance, remain poorly understood. To fill this gap, we conducted experiments involving three (0, 2‰, 5‰, w/w), coupled with varying densities 5, 10...

The incorporation of organic amendments is widely acknowledged for its capacity to enhance soil fertility and boost crop productivity. However, whether the addition can improve quality production, simultaneously causing methane emissions in paddy fields, deserves further investigation. In this meta-analysis, effects different on nutrient levels, rice yield CH4 were evaluated fields based 328 observations from 77 field trial studies. Our results revealed that significantly increased carbon...

The soil seed bank (SSB) is a natural of viable seeds in the or on its surface. Researches SSB have accumulated extensively worldwide, but seldom been visualized and quantitatively analyzed. In this paper, publications related to from 1900 2019 were collected Web Science Core Collection database, reviewed analyzed using CiteSpace. Annual distribution, co-occurrence analysis, collaboration network co-citation analysis burst detection all conducted. results showed that (1) number had increased...

As the frequency of droughts increases with climate change, tolerance aquatic organisms to abiotic stressors will become critical determinants survival. Pomacea canaliculata has a widely distributed agricultural and environmental pest in southern China. To evaluate their adaptation under drought condition, survival, feeding, behavior, antioxidant system changes female male P. were investigated during stress rewatering process through an indoor simulation experiment. The results showed that...

Fluoride in water is a threat to human health and it urgently needs be eliminated. In this study, the selected Fe-La-Ce biochar (BBCFLC) was derived from kind of invasive plant Bidens pilosa L. adsorb fluoride water, resulting sustainable adsorption technology. Based on results characterization, analyzed that metals were successfully incorporated into efficiency for removal enhanced. Moreover, BBCFLC performed an effective capacity 192.79 mg/g with quick attainments uptake equilibrium within...
