• Underestimating the damage: interpreting cetacean carcass recoveries in the context of the Deepwater Horizon/BP incident (2011, background): “Human impacts on marine ecosystems and marine mammals are growing both in type and scale (Kraus & Rolland 2007; Clausen & York 2008; Duce et al. 2008; Doney 2010; Hoegh-Guldberg & Bruno 2010; Tittensor et al. 2010).”
• The global nitrogen cycle in the twenty-first century (2013, background): “denitrification to N2 in oceans 100 – 280 [17,47,21] Nr burial in oceans 20 [17] rstb.”
• Revising the nitrogen cycle in the Peruvian oxygen minimum zone (2009, background): “In theory, this additional input would increase marine primary production and thus marine CO2 sequestration (29), but whether positive or negative feedbacks may ensue via subsequent remineralization of organic matter and nitrogen loss becomes an urgent research question.”
• Foraging ecology of Mediterranean fin whales in a changing environment elucidated by satellite tracking and baleen plate stable isotopes (2011, background): “The observed decrease in δ15N is an important eco - system indicator supporting the assumption of a changing nitrogen cycle with still unclear effects (Duce et al. 2008).”
• The Global Nitrogen Cycle (2012, background): “Duce et al. (2008) concluded that anthropogenic N deposition in the open ocean could be responsible for ∼3% of annual new primary production.”
• Pluses and minuses of ammonium and nitrate uptake and assimilation by phytoplankton and implications for productivity and community composition, with emphasis on nitrogen‐enriched conditions (2016, background): “Increases in atmospheric deposition of NH 1 4 have also been significant in many nearshore and offshore waters (Aneja et al. 2003; Duce et al. 2008).”
• LEGUME NITROGEN FIXATION AND SOIL ABIOTIC STRESS: FROM PHYSIOLOGY TO GENOMICS AND BEYOND (2010, background): “Current losses of anthropogenic N from land to sea are estimated to be 48 Tg/year (Schlesinger, 2009), being approximately 1 Tg in the form of nitrous oxide (N2O; Duce et al., 2008), with grave consequences for the ozone layer and greenhouse effect, since this gas is 300 times more effective than”
• The biological pump in a high CO 2 world (2012, background): “The anthropogenic inputs of nitrogen to the ocean via enhanced riverine effluent (Smith et al. 2003) and as atmospheric fixed nitrogen have already contributed to measurably higher algal production in some coastal areas (Duce et al. 2008).”
• Linking N2O emissions from biochar-amended soil to the structure and function of the N-cycling microbial community (2013, background): “The loss of anthropogenic nitrogen to the environment causes many problems from increasing freshwater nitrate concentrations to raising nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions that accelerate global climate change (Duce et al., 2008).”
