    Sustainable land management enhances ecological and economic multifunctionality under ambient and future climate

    The currently dominant types of land management are threatening the multifunctionality of ecosystems, which is vital for human well-being. Here, we present a novel ecological-economic assessment of how multifu...

    Drivers of soil microbial and detritivore activity across global grasslands

    Covering approximately 40% of land surfaces, grasslands provide critical ecosystem services that rely on soil organisms. However, the global determinants of soil biodiversity and functioning remain underexplor...

    The effects of drought and nutrient addition on soil organisms vary across taxonomic groups, but are constant across seasons

    Anthropogenic global change alters the activity and functional composition of soil communities that are responsible for crucial ecosystem functions and services. Two of the most pervasive global change drivers...
