Drought re-routes soil microbial carbon metabolism towards emission of volatile metabolites in an artificial tropical rainforest. [PDF]
Drought impacts on microbial activity can alter soil carbon fate and lead to the loss of stored carbon to the atmosphere as CO2 and volatile organic compounds (VOCs). Here we examined drought impacts on carbon allocation by soil microbes in the Biosphere
