1. How do rainfall patterns change microbial induced carbon dynamics in soil?
University essay from Lunds universitet/Teknisk mikrobiologi; Lunds universitet/BioteknikAbstract : Climate change is changing the precipitation patterns around the globe, leading to more extreme weather events like severe drought and heavy rainfalls. These events are intrinsically related to soil moisture fluctuations, which strongly modulates carbon fluxes in terrestrial ecosystems. READ MORE

2. Metagenomic insights into AMR distributions in freshwaters and soils
University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildningAbstract : Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is rapidly becoming a public health issue, as more and more infectious bacteria become resistant to our known antibiotics. Suggested reasons for the proliferation of these strains are misuse and overuse of antimicrobials, especially on an industrial level, in agriculture, livestock and aquaculture. READ MORE

3. Legacy effects of temperature alterations on microbial resistance and resilience to drying and rewetting
University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskapAbstract : With warming in soils due to climate change, a series of secondary factors arise, which have multifaceted effects on soil microbial communities. Of these, alterations to soil moisture are among the most crucial to understanding how microbial functions will change in the face of climate change. READ MORE

4. Explicit consideration of microbes in quantification of gross N rates based on N-tracing model
University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaperAbstract : When studying the nitrogen cycle in soils, the principle of 15N isotope dilution and enrichment is commonly used to measure gross N transformation rates. The measuring data of both organic and inorganic nitrogen substrates are therefore be analysed by Ntrace model. READ MORE

5. Microbial ecosystem analysis of biochar-enriched soil in Kenya using microfluidic soil models
University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Biomedicinsk teknikAbstract : Healthy soil is rich in diverse microbial life, and a healthy microbial ecosystem is crucial for any well-functioning agriculture. Soil microbes are essential for organic decomposition and nutrient recycling in the soil, which make nutrients available for agricultural crops. READ MORE
