Ecosystem‐Dependent Responses of Microbial Necromass Carbon to Warming Are Governed by the Balance Between Necromass Formation and Decomposition
Microbial necromass carbon (MNC) is increasingly recognized as a major contributor to persistent soil organic carbon (SOC), yet its response to climate warming and the underlying regulatory mechanisms remain poorly understood. Here, we conducted a global meta‐analysis to assess how total MNC, fungal necromass carbon (F...
