• Biogeochemical cycles and biodiversity as key drivers of ecosystem services provided by soils (2015, background): “After carbon, N is the most abundant nutrient in all forms of life, since it is contained in proteins, nucleic acids, and other compounds (Galloway et al., 2008).”

• Chapter 14 – Nitrogen Transformations (2015, background): “Humans have doubled the circulation of reactive N on Earth, creating a nitrogen cascade in which added N flows through the environment, leading to degradation of air and water quality and coastal ecosystems in many areas (Galloway et al., 2008).”
