A legacy of drought

A legacy of drought

Drought imposes a legacy of inhibition on microbial decomposition – New paper in Ecosphere by former postdoc Bin Wang uses our trait-based model to show the mechanism. But, dispersal nearly eliminates the legacy!
Fungal resilience to drought

Fungal resilience to drought

Although cycles of drought are common in the Southwestern United States, climate change has made these droughts more frequent and more severe. Understanding how soil organisms, fungi in particular, are coping with those changes is important because fungi are major...
