Global Change Biology, Volume 25, Issue 10, Page 3549-3561, October 2019., 2019 How soil food web complexity modulates the response to drought of soil functions related to C cycling and the capture and transfer below‐ground of recent photosynthate C by plants? We provide an exciting 13C pulse‐labelling experiment to answer that question.
