Using simulated wildland fire to assess microbial survival at multiple depths from biocrust and bare soils

IntroductionSurface soil microbial communities are directly exposed to the heat from wildland fires. Due to this, the microbial community composition may be stratified within the soil profile with more heat tolerant microbes near the surface and less heat tolerant microbes, or mobile species found d...
