This study shows that recurrent drought increases seasonal synchrony in grassland plant communities by reducing species richness and altering functional groups, making ecosystems more vulnerable to future disturbances.

The paper investigates how forest connectivity affects fungal community composition and function in leaf litter during forest restoration, finding connectivity has a stronger impact than age.

The paper identifies how temperature and precipitation interact to shape plant-soil microbiota associations by influencing the start of the growing season in cold-climate ecosystems.
