The current review investigates the hypothesis that dormant soil microorganisms are
relevant for microbial processes and community changes. Dormant soil microorganisms are …

Soil microbial communities are subjected to significant changes over time. The most rapid
changes caused by temperature and soil moisture alternations or the by the inflow of fresh …

Background Evergreen coniferous forests contain high stocks of organic matter. Significant
carbon transformations occur in litter and soil of these ecosystems, making them important …

Soil microbial growth, respiration, and carbon (C) use efficiency (CUE) are essential
parameters to understand, describe and model the soil carbon cycle. While seasonal …

The soil microbial community plays essential roles in bioavailable nitrogen (N) cycling, and
microbial dynamics during the plant dormant season could affect N cycling in the …

Fungal communities are important for carbon (C) transformations in boreal forests that are
one of the largest C pools in terrestrial ecosystems, warranting thus further investigation of …

The soil microbial community actively drives biogeochemical cycling even in the plant-
dormant season of winter in temperate forests. The northern ecosystems are experiencing …

Modelling the development of soils in glacier forefields is necessary in order to assess how
microbial and geochemical processes interact and shape soil development in response to …

Soil phosphorus (P) remains an ever‐increasing topic of importance, notably for its key role
as a nutrient for driving food production but with parallel concerns over damaging water …

Soil microorganisms require a range of essential elements for their optimal functioning and
store several elements in the microbial biomass (MB), such as carbon (C), nitrogen (N) …
