Overview

Nutrient cycling refers to the movement and transformation of essential chemical elements through biological, geological, and chemical processes in ecosystems, enabling their repeated use by living organisms. Research published in International Journal of Limnology examines nutrient cycling across diverse environments, from marine pelagic systems where krill-to-whale food webs facilitate nutrient transfer along deep sea seamount migration routes, to terrestrial agricultural landscapes where fertilizer application strategies influence nitrogen use efficiency in crops like sorghum. Studies investigate how soil testing practices assess nutrient availability for plant health, exploring whether conventional fertilizer recommendations adequately capture broader soil health parameters. The journal addresses nutrient dynamics in wetland ecosystems, particularly how agricultural land use practices alter water quality through nutrient loading. Research also considers the interconnections between climate change, land degradation, and nutrient management in food security contexts, as well as fundamental plant physiological parameters like pH that influence nutrient uptake. Additionally, investigations of insect biodiversity in semi-arid and aquatic ecosystems contribute to understanding nutrient cycling through decomposition and trophic interactions. This body of work underscores nutrient cycling's central role in ecosystem function, agricultural productivity, and environmental quality across aquatic and terrestrial systems.
