Hyperarid soil microbial community response to simulated rainfall

Hyperarid soil microbial community response to simulated rainfall

The exceptionally long and protracted aridity in the Atacama Desert (AD), Chile, provides an extreme, terrestrial ecosystem that is ideal for studying microbial community dynamics under hyperarid conditions. Our aim was to characterize the temporal response of hyperarid soil AD microbial communities...
