The spatial distribution and biogeochemical drivers of nitrogen cycle genes in an Antarctic desert

The spatial distribution and biogeochemical drivers of nitrogen cycle genes in an Antarctic desert

Antarctic deserts, such as the McMurdo Dry Valleys (MDV), represent extremely cold and dry environments. Consequently, MDV are suitable for studying the environment limits on the cycling of key elements that are necessary for life, like nitrogen. The spatial distribution and biogeochemical drivers o...
