Early-successional stages have been truncated and altered in many western U.S. forest landscapes by
planting conifers, controlling competing vegetation, suppressing fire, and focusing on maintaining late-seral
species and undisturbed riparian zones. Declining area of early-successional stages may be reducing
resilience and sustainability on landscapes that experience elevated disturbance related to...

Ammonia oxidation is the first and rate-limiting step in nitrification and is dominated by two distinct groups of microorganisms in soil: ammonia-oxidizing archaea (AOA) and ammonia-oxidizing bacteria (AOB). AOA are often more abundant than AOB and dominate activity in acid soils. The mechanism of ammonia oxidation under acidic conditions has...
