The effects of exogenous nitrogen on NO production processes in the soils of un-restoration wetland (R), restoration wetland since 2007 (R) and restoration wetland since 2002 (R) of the Yellow River estuary were studied, and the contributions of different processes in NO production were determined. Results showed that the NO production of restoration wetland soils (R and R) with NO-N addition was much higher than that with NH-N addition, but both NH-N and NO-N additions demonstrated inhibition on the NO production of soils in R. Although the effect of NO-N addition on the total NO production of topsoil in R was significantly higher than those in R, the values in R and R were greatly increased with increasing NO-N addition. The denitrification and nitrifier denitrification processes in restoration wetland soils (R and R) were greatly affected by NO-N addition, but no significant influence on the non-biological processes of soil in R was observed. Although NH-N addition did not produce significant effects on the total NO production of wetland soils, the nitrifier denitrification process in R soil, the nitrification process in R soil and the non-biological process in R soil were generally stimulated. In R and R soils, the NO produced by non-biological processes was generally eleva-ted with NH-N addition, while with NO-N addition, the non-biological processes generating NO in R, R and R soils were generally inhibited, which was closely correlated with the regulation of soil pH caused by the import of exogenous nitrogen. This study found that the enrichment of NO-N greatly enhanced the total NO production of wetland soils and significantly altered the original contribution patterns of biological and non-biological processes to NO production. Thus, special attention should be paid on the influences of nutrient import (particularly NO-N enrichment) induced by ecological restoration project on NO production of wetland soils.

Blue carbon refers to organic carbon sequestered by oceanic and coastal ecosystems. This stock has gained global attention as a high organic carbon repository relative to other ecosystems. Within blue carbon ecosystems, tidally influenced wetlands alone store a disproportionately higher amount of organic carbon than other blue carbon systems.

An obligately anaerobic, spore-forming sulphate-reducing bacterium, strain SB140, was isolated from a long-term continuous enrichment culture that was inoculated with peat soil from an acidic fen. Cells were immotile, slightly curved rods that stained Gram-negative. The optimum temperature for growth was 28 °C.

Vegetation change significantly altered the hydrological processes and soil erosion within riparian ecosystems. It is unclear how change in managed vegetation types affect the geochemical behavior of heavy metals (HMs) and magnetic particles in karst riparian areas. Two soil depths of 0-20 cm and 20-40 cm were taken in alien species (), native species and in a typical urban plateau Lake wetland, Caohai lake, China.

Tropical peatlands are carbon-dense ecosystems that are significant sources of atmospheric methane (CH). Recent work has demonstrated the importance of trees as an emission pathway for CH from the peat to the atmosphere. However, there remain questions over the processes of CH production in these systems and how they relate to substrate supply.

Azo dyes constitute 60-70% of commercially used dyes and are complex, carcinogenic, and mutagenic pollutants that negatively impact soil composition, water bodies, flora, and fauna. Conventional azo dye degradation techniques have drawbacks such as high production and maintenance costs, use of hazardous chemicals, membrane clogging, and sludge generation. Constructed Wetland-Microbial Fuel Cells (CW-MFCs) offer a promising sustainable approach for the bio-electrodegradation of azo dyes from textile wastewater.
