The Anthropocene is functionally and stratigraphically distinct from the Holocene (2016, background): “Nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) in soils have doubled in the past century because of increased fertilizer use (8, 9, 48).”

Linking N2O emissions from biochar-amended soil to the structure and function of the N-cycling microbial community (2013, background): “However, levels of produced N2O are usually orders of magnitude lower (10(3)–10(6)) than those of nitrite (Arp and Stein, 2003; Treusch et al., 2005; Robertson, 2007; Canfield et al., 2010; Braker and Conrad, 2011).”
Coastal eutrophication as a driver of salt marsh loss (2012, background): “Figure 3 | The global relationship between nutrient loading and salt-marsh distribution and loss. a, The spatial distribution of the ramping up of anthropogenic nitrogen loading (dissolved inorganic nutrient (DIN) fluxes) from continents to coastal oceans from the pre-industrial period (1800s) to th”
Advances in Remote Sensing of Agriculture: Context Description, Existing Operational Monitoring Systems and Major Information Needs (2013, background): “• greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from land clearing, crop production and fertilization contribute already to 1/3 of global GHG emissions [24]; • global nitrogen and phosphorus cycles have been disrupted, with impacts on water quality, aquatic ecosystems and marine fisheries [25,26]; • freshwater res”
Processes on the Young Earth and the Habitats of Early Life (2012, background): “Today, the atmospheric reservoir and atmospheric lifetime of N2 are set by the balance (Canfield et al. 2010) between, on the one hand, processes fixing nitrogen, including both biological nitrification and lightning fixation, and, on the other hand, formation of N2 by denitrification and by…”
