Journal ArticleDOI

Biocrust-forming mosses mitigate the impact of aridity on soil microbial communities in drylands: observational evidence from three continents.

Manuel Delgado-Baquerizo, +6 more
- 01 Nov 2018 - 
TL;DR: Biocrust-forming mosses mitigate the impact of aridity on the community composition of globally distributed microbial taxa, and the diversity of fungi, and emphasize the importance of maintaining biocrusts as a sanctuary for soil microbes in drylands.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mammalian engineers drive soil microbial communities and ecosystem functions across a disturbance gradient.

David J. Eldridge, +3 more
- 01 Nov 2016 - 
TL;DR: Soil disturbance by animals may offset, to some degree, the oft-reported negative effects of grazing-induced disturbance on soil function, and most of this effect will be derived from echidnas, with little positive effects due to rabbits.
Journal ArticleDOI

Aridity modulates N availability in arid and semiarid Mediterranean grasslands.

Manuel Delgado-Baquerizo, +14 more
- 02 Apr 2013 - 
TL;DR: The results suggest that the increase in aridity predicted with ongoing climate change will reduce N availability in the Mediterranean basin, impacting plant nutrient uptake and net primary production in semiarid grasslands throughout this region.
Journal ArticleDOI

Biological soil crusts increase the resistance of soil nitrogen dynamics to changes in temperatures in a semi-arid ecosystem

Manuel Delgado-Baquerizo, +2 more
- 01 May 2013 - 
TL;DR: In this article, the influence of these environmental factors on N transformations under BSC soils has not been evaluated before, and the results suggest that the N cycle is more resistant to changes in T in BSC-dominated than in bare ground areas.
Journal ArticleDOI

Species identity of biocrust-forming lichens drives the response of soil nitrogen cycle to altered precipitation frequency and nitrogen amendment

Yu-Rong Liu, +6 more
- 01 May 2016 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, a microcosm study was conducted to evaluate how the species identity of biocrust-forming lichens (Diploschistes thunbergianus, Psora crystallifera and Xanthoparmelia reptans) regulate key processes of N cycling in response to simulated changes in rainfall frequency and N addition.
