About Biocrusts and Microbial Ecology
This cluster of papers explores the role of biological soil crusts, particularly focusing on cyanobacteria, in influencing carbon and nitrogen cycles, providing UV protection, exhibiting desiccation tolerance, contributing to microbial diversity, stabilizing soil, impacting hydrological processes, and influencing ecosystem functioning in the context of global change.
