Long‐term insect herbivory slows soil development in an arid ecosystem
Although herbivores are well known to alter litter inputs and soil nutrient fluxes, their long‐term influences on soil development are largely unknown because of the difficulty of detecting and attributing changes in carbon and nutrient pools against large background levels. The early phase of prima...
