Soil microbial communities are ubiquitous and essential for the functioning of the soil
system. The use of fire is a common practice in rotational shifting cultivation (RSC) to clear …

Global wildfire activity has increased since the 1970s and is projected to intensify throughout
the 21st century. Wildfires change the composition and biodegradability of soil organic …

Fire frequency and severity have increased in recent decades in the western United States,
with direct implications for the quantity and composition of soil organic matter (SOM). While …

Disturbances cause rapid changes to forests, with different disturbance types and severities
creating unique ecosystem trajectories that can impact the underlying soil microbiome. Pile …

There is a knowledge gap surrounding how drought and wildfire, two increasingly frequent
disturbances, will alter soil fungal communities. Moreover, studies that directly compare …

The frequency and intensity of global wildfires are escalating, leading to an increase in
derived pyrogenic dissolved organic matter (pyDOM), which potentially influences the …

Wildfires in the western US are increasing in frequency, size, and severity. These
disturbances alter soil microbiome structure and function, with greater fire severity leading to …

Methods Eight years after fire, soil samples were collected from selected N. pumilio
rhizosphere and bulk soil in fire-affected areas, and were compared with those from …

Forty percent of terrestrial ecosystems require recurrent fires engineered by feedbacks
between fire and plant fuels. Fuel loads control fire intensity which alters soil nutrients and …

As climate change progresses, the western United States is experiencing shifting wildfire
behavior to more frequent and severe wildfires. Wildfires reduce soil microbial biomass and …
