New publication with @cynkallenbach.bsky.social - here MS student Rachael led a study exploring microbial community sensitivity to flooding in the context of soil pore structure in disturbed and undisturbed sites. www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Soil pore heterogeneity mediates microbial response and recovery following an extreme wetting event across contrasting land uses
Short-term flooding is forecasted to increase in frequency and duration in temperate ecosystems, dramatically altering soil habitats for microbial com…

Floodplain land use gradients have a stronger effect on soil microbial enzyme activity than spatiotemporal variability
Climate change is leading to flood events with higher frequency and longer duration. Changes in seasonal flooding that affect water saturation of soils can impact soil microbial extracellular enzyme ...

Great work from Hannah Lieberman arguing soil P is as or more important than N in determining MAOM accumulation and its sensitivity to global change. dx.doi.org/10.1111/gcb....

Soil Phosphorus Dynamics are an Overlooked but Dominant Control on Mineral‐Associated Organic Matter
We argue that soil phosphorus (P) plays a critical and underrated role in mineral associated organic matter (MAOM) persistence and soil organic matter cycling, as P forms strong mineral bonds, influe...
