Soils are the fundament of terrestrial ecosystems. Across the globe we find different soil
types with different properties resulting from the interacting soil forming factors: parent …

Soil fungi are fundamental to plant productivity, yet their influence on the temporal stability of
global terrestrial ecosystems, and their capacity to buffer plant productivity against extreme …

While the contribution of biodiversity to supporting multiple ecosystem functions is well
established in natural ecosystems, the relationship of the above-and below-ground diversity …

Aim Fresh carbon (C) inputs to the soil can have important consequences for the
decomposition rates of soil organic matter (priming effect), thereby impacting the delicate …

Soils represent the largest phosphorus (P) reserves on land and determining the amount is
a critical first step for identifying sites where ecosystem functioning is potentially limited by P …

Soil priming is a microbial‐driven process, which determines key soil–climate feedbacks in
response to fresh carbon inputs. Despite its importance, the microbial traits behind this …

Warming is known to reduce soil carbon (C) stocks by promoting microbial respiration, which
is associated with the decomposition of microbial residue carbon (MRC). However, the …

Restoring degraded land is an efficient strategy for improving biodiversity and ecosystem
functioning. However, the effects of aboveground and belowground biodiversity on multiple …

Soil micronutrients are capital for the delivery of ecosystem functioning and food provision
worldwide. Yet, despite their importance, the global biogeography and ecological drivers of …

Urban greenspaces support multiple nature-based services, many of which depend on the
amount of soil carbon (C). Yet, the environmental drivers of soil C and its sensitivity to …
