Urea-loaded nanoclay biopolymer composites integrated with beneficial microbes enhance nutrient uptake and mitigate greenhouse gas emissions

Low nitrogen use efficiency of prilled urea contributes to substantial economic loss and environmental pollution through leaching, denitrification, and ammonia volatilization. This study evaluated urea-loaded nanoclay biopolymer composites (NCBPCs), synthesized from clay-acrylic...

Anthropogenic drivers of algal regime shifts in a Himalayan watershed and pathways for nature-based solutions

Abstract Freshwater ecosystems worldwide are increasingly threatened by human activities, yet the ecological mechanisms linking anthropogenic pressures to algal community dynamics remain incompletely resolved in the Himalayan river systems. To bridge this gap, this study presents...
