Microbial communities are not the easiest to manipulate experimentally in natural
ecosystems. However, leaf litter—topmost layer of surface soil—is uniquely suitable to …

The frequency and intensity of droughts worldwide are challenging the conservation of soil
organic carbon (SOC) pool. Microbial necromass is a key component of SOC, but how it …

In polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) contaminated soils, bioremediation is superior to
other strategies owing to its low cost and environmental friendliness. However, dissolved …

Simple Summary The dynamics of the soil bacterial communities in rotational shifting
cultivation fields were investigated. A six-year interval of fallow years did not result in any …

Lodgepole pine forests are under threat due to wildfires of increasing severity and frequency
coupled with tree mortality from insect outbreaks. Soil microbial communities, which drive …

Atmospheric nitrogen (N) deposition is enriching soils with N across biomes. Soil N
enrichment can increase plant productivity and affect microbial activity, thereby increasing …

Rotational shifting cultivation (RSC) in Northern Thailand serves the dual purpose of
ensuring food security and meeting economic goals through maize cultivation. However, the …

Climate warming is a pressing global issue with substantial impacts on soil health and
function. However, the influence of environmental context on the responses of soil …

Wild PAH-contaminated sites struggle to provide continuous and stable monitoring, resulting
in the potential risks of contaminated soil utilization could not be evaluated effectively. This …

The deep-rooted economic trees decrease water storage but increase nitrate-nitrogen (NO 3–
N) accumulation in the soil due to the root water uptake and excessive use of fertilizers …
