Precipitation Gradients Regulate Soil Carbon Stabilization Mediated by Microbes in an Arid Region of China
Desert ecosystems are important components of the terrestrial carbon cycle, yet the mechanisms by which altered precipitation regulates soil organic carbon (SOC) stabilization remain poorly understood. We evaluated long-term responses to precipitation manipulation in a desert shrub ecosystem in northwestern China. The...
