Are researchers following best storage practices for measuring soil biochemical properties

TL;DR: In this article, a case study on a temperategrassland soil taken from different depths was used to demonstrate how differences in soil and/or soil extract storage temperature (4 or − 20 √ C) and duration can influence sample integrity for the measurement of organic and inorganic forms of carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) in soils.
Journal ArticleDOI

Variance, locality and structure: Three experimental challenges in the study of the response of soil microbial communities to multiple perturbations

TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of perturbations on the structure and functions of soil microbial communities in time and space are investigated. But the authors focus on the variance, locality and structure challenges.
Journal ArticleDOI

Grassland degradation-induced declines in soil fungal complexity reduce fungal community stability and ecosystem multifunctionality

TL;DR: In this paper , the authors assessed soil fungal network complexity and a suite of ecosystem functions along a well-characterised gradient of grassland degradation and restoration on the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau.
