Drivers and trends of global soil microbial carbon over two decades

G. Patoine, N. Eisenhauer, et al.

This groundbreaking study reveals alarming declines in global soil microbial biomass carbon, with a loss equivalent to 149 Mt from 1992 to 2013, primarily driven by rising temperatures in northern regions. Authors Guillaume Patoine, Nico Eisenhauer, Simone Cesarz, Helen R. P. Phillips, Xiaofeng Xu, Lihua Zhang, and Carlos A. Guerra bring forth crucial insights into the dynamics of soil health and its implications for our environment.
