Here we conducted a global analysis of the bacterial communities found in surface soils from 237 locations across six continents and 18 countries (fig. S1) to (i) identify the most dominant (i.e., most abundant and ubiquitous) bacterial phylotypes worldwide; (ii) determine which of these dominant phylotypes tend to co-occur and share similar environmental preferences; (iii) map the ...
They argued that low moisture dries air masses in Southern , which, as they move northward, decrease cloudiness and enhance the atmospheric evaporative demand. Our hydrologic simulation is in agreement with their hypothesis, showing that, during the compound warm-season events of CEU, January to April moisture deficits in MED ...
’s lands are largely vulnerable and threatened by degradation and low water availability, especially in semi-arid and arid regions, limiting crop and livestock productivity and farmer livelihood options. Therefore, agricultural lands, adopting/improving measures that conserve and water resources is crucial. This review aims to provide an update on and water ...
