ImpactHigh impact

Many participants highlight the profound consequences of microbial loss, suggesting notable ecological implications.

Abstract in brief

  • Anthropogenic climate change is negatively affecting the functioning of ecosystems, particularly by threatening soil biodiversity.
  • Over a 7-year study, researchers found that warming and reduced soil moisture significantly decrease the richness of soil bacterial, fungal, and protistan communities.
  • The study highlights that decreased microbial biodiversity can harm essential ecosystem processes like productivity and biomass, suggesting a more serious impact in a warming climate.
