Soils underpin terrestrial ecosystem functions, but they face numerous anthropogenic
pressures. Despite their crucial ecological role, we know little about how soils react to more …

Despite their importance, how plant communities and soil microorganisms interact to
determine the capacity of ecosystems to provide multiple functions simultaneously …

Biodiversity is crucial for the provision of ecosystem functions. However, ecosystems are
now exposed to a rapidly growing number of anthropogenic pressures, and it remains …

In recent years, there has been an increase in research to understand how global changes'
impacts on soil biota translate into altered ecosystem functioning. However, results vary …

Increasing the number of environmental stressors could decrease ecosystem functioning in
soils. Yet this relationship has not been globally assessed outside laboratory experiments …

Decomposition of organic material by soil microbes generates an annual global release of
50–75 Pg carbon to the atmosphere,∼ 7.5–9 times that of anthropogenic emissions …

Soil microbial diversity is one of the key factors affecting the structure and function of the
belowground ecosystem; yet, little is known about the response of microbial diversity to …

The world's ecosystems are subjected to various anthropogenic global change agents, such
as enrichment of atmospheric CO 2 concentrations, nitrogen (N) deposition, and changes in …

Soil microbiology has entered into the big data era, but the challenges in bridging laboratory‐
, field‐, and model‐based studies of ecosystem functions still remain. Indeed, the limitation …

Biodiversity, both aboveground and belowground, is negatively affected by global changes
such as drought or warming. This loss of biodiversity impacts Earth's ecosystems, as there is …
