The relationship between biodiversity and litter decomposition has received considerable attention, but the complex biodiversity effects on decomposition and the underlying mechanisms are still ...

Using metagenomic sequencing across a realistic temperature gradient, researchers show that carcass decay triggers a surge in carbon-degradation ...

Aims It has been well demonstrated that several interacting endogenous and exogenous factors influence decomposition. However, teasing apart the direct and indirect effects of these factors to predict ...

As global temperatures continue to rise, scientists are working to understand how warming affects the planet’s carbon cycle.

Breaking down a process into non-redundant operations. In structured programming, it provides a hierarchical breakdown of the program into the individual operations, or routines, that are required.
