The ability of ecosystems to withstand disturbances and maintain their functions is being
increasingly tested as rates of change intensify due to climate change and other human …

Ecologists are increasingly adopting trait-based approaches to understand how community
change influences ecosystem processes. However, most of this research has focussed on …

Soil microbial communities play a crucial role in ecosystem functioning, but it is unknown
how co-occurrence networks within these communities respond to disturbances such as …

Plant-soil feedbacks (PSFs) are interactions among plants, soil organisms, and abiotic soil
conditions that influence plant performance, plant species diversity, and community …

Decline of ecosystem services has triggered numerous studies aiming at developing more
sustainable agricultural management practices. Some agricultural practices may improve …

It is increasingly acknowledged that plant–soil feedbacks may play an important role in
driving the composition of plant communities and functioning of terrestrial ecosystems …

A major challenge for advancing our understanding of the functional role of soil microbial
communities is to link changes in their structure and function under climate change. To …

Salinization of soil is recognised as one of the most pressing environmental challenges to
resolve for the next century. We here conduct a synoptic review of the available research on …

Seasonally dry tropical forests (SDTF) are located in regions with alternating wet and dry
seasons, with dry seasons that last several months or more. By the end of the 21st century …

Soil microbial communities are intricately linked to ecosystem functioning because they play
important roles in carbon and nitrogen cycling. Still, we know little about how soil microbial …
