Soil microorganisms shape global element cycles in life and death. Living soil
microorganisms are a major engine of terrestrial biogeochemistry, driving the turnover of soil …

Predicting and mitigating changes in soil carbon (C) stocks under global change requires a
coherent understanding of the factors regulating soil organic matter (SOM) formation and …

Despite the recognized importance of the contribution of microbial necromass to soil organic
carbon (SOC) sequestration, at a global scale, there has been no quantification for cropland …

Conventional farming practices can lead to soil degradation and a decline in productivity.
Regenerative agriculture (RA) is purported by advocates as a solution to these issues that …

Soil carbon sequestration (SCS) refers to the uptake of carbon (C) containing substances
from the atmosphere and its storage in soil C pools. Soil microbial community (SMC) play a …

The life history strategies of soil microbes determine their metabolic potential and their
response to environmental changes. Yet these strategies remain poorly understood. Here …

Microbial necromass is a large, dynamic and persistent component of soil organic carbon,
the dominant terrestrial carbon pool. Quantification of necromass carbon stocks and its …

Understanding the large-scale pattern of soil microbial carbon use efficiency (CUE) and its
temperature sensitivity (CUET) is critical for understanding soil carbon–climate feedback …

Increasing phosphorus (P) inputs induced by anthropogenic activities have increased P
availability in soils considerably, with dramatic effects on carbon (C) cycling and storage …

Microbial communities play important roles in soil health, contributing to processes such as
the turnover of organic matter and nutrient cycling. As soil edaphic properties such as …
