Glad to share our newly published paper in Global Change Biology!!
In this study, we looked at 171 peatlands across the Northern Hemisphere, together with a large-scale experiment, to explore how bacterial diversity is connected to ecosystem functioning.

Tipping Points in Bacterial Richness Amplify Extracellular Enzyme Activities in Northern Peatlands
Using a trans-Holarctic survey in Sphagnum-dominated peatlands, we identify a critical bacterial biodiversity threshold. Below this threshold, ecosystem function shifts, increasing enzyme activities ...
