A closer look at the functions behind ecosystem multifunctionality: A review
In recent years there has been an upsurge of studies on ecosystem multifunctionality (EMF),
or the ability of ecosystems to simultaneously provide multiple functions and/or services. The …

Soil microbiomes under climate change and implications for carbon cycling
Communities of soil microorganisms (soil microbiomes) play a major role in biogeochemical
cycles and support of plant growth. Here we focus primarily on the roles that the soil …
