Extreme droughts have serious impacts on the pools, fluxes and processes of terrestrial
carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) cycles. A deep understanding is necessary to explore the …

Rainfall reductions influence ecosystem processes through impacts on the microbial
community. However, the response of soil microbial community and their interactions with …

Understanding the dynamics of soil microbial communities responsible for soil element
cycling is vital to understanding organic amendments' mechanisms in agricultural soil …

Rewetting dry soils is associated with a burst of microbial activity and mineralization, which
manifests itself as a pulse in soil CO 2 emissions, long-known as the Birch effect. In arid and …

Precipitation changes modify C, N, and P cycles, which regulate the functions and structure
of terrestrial ecosystems. Although altered precipitation affects above‐and belowground C …

Altered drying-rewetting patterns due to climate change may affect soil nitrogen (N) and
phosphorus (P) cycling in terrestrial ecosystems. The responses of soil N and P cycling to …

Soils provide essential ecosystem functions that are threatened by climate change and
intensified land use. We explore how climate and land use impact multiple soil function …

Current consensus on global climate change predicts warming trends with more
pronounced temperature changes in winter than summer in the Northern Hemisphere at …

The few percent of soil organic carbon (SOC) among mineral components form the interface
of climate, plant growth, soil biological processes, physical transport infrastructure, and …

Changing climatic conditions (warming and decreasing precipitation) have been found to be
a threat to the agricultural sustainability of Mediterranean croplands. From the climate …
