Agricultural intensification (AI) has significantly altered soil ecosystems, affecting microbial community structure and function, which are crucial for soil fertility and ecosystem stability. This study investigated the responses of soil microbial communities (bacteria, fungi, archaea) to different AI levels (conventional farming, intensive farming, and organic farming) in three agricultural r...

Extreme precipitation events (EPEs) are increasing in frequency and intensity in arid zones due to global climate change, profoundly altering soil hydrological conditions and nutrient availability, which in turn affect soil microbial community structure and ecological functions. However, the responses of soil microbial co-occurrence networks (an important indicator of community stability and in...

Hydrological fluctuations (HFs) are a core characteristic of wetland ecosystems and are intensifying under global climate change, profoundly affecting soil microbial community structure and the associated carbon (C) cycling processes. However, the mechanisms underlying microbial community responses to HFs and their regulatory effects on wetland soil C sequestration and emission remain unclear. ...

Warming and nitrogen (N) deposition are two major global change factors that co-occur and profoundly affect terrestrial ecosystem structure and function. Arid ecosystems, which are characterized by water and nutrient limitation, are particularly sensitive to global change. Soil microorganisms are the key drivers of soil carbon (C) cycling, mediating the decomposition of soil organic carbon (SOC...

With the intensification of human activities, nitrogen (N) deposition has become a major global change factor affecting terrestrial ecosystem structure and function. Arid zone ecosystems are inherently N-limited, making them highly sensitive to exogenous N input. Soil microorganisms are the core drivers of soil N cycling processes, but the mechanisms by which N deposition regulates microbial co...
