The pH optimum of soil exoenzymes adapt to long term changes in soil pH [PDF]
Soil Biology and Biochemistry, 2019 Soil exoenzymes released by microorganisms break down organic matter and are crucial in regulating C, N and P cycling. Soil pH is known to influence enzyme activity, and is also a strong driver of microbial community composition; but little is known ...

Afforestation neutralizes soil pH [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2018 Afforestation is often used to increase terrestrial carbon sequestration and restore ecosystem services. Here, the authors show that afforestation can also neutralize soil pH by lowering pH in alkaline soil but raising pH in acid soil, thus further ...
