Soil acidification reduces soil fungal diversity, alters microbial carbon metabolism and enhances soil C persistence in an alkaline grassland

This dataset was used to make tables and figures for the study entitled "Soil acidification reduces soil fungal diversity, alters microbial carbon metabolism and enhances soil C persistence in an alkaline grassland", which will be recently submitted to Global Change Biology in October 2023. It contains data of soil properties, plant and microbial communities under soil acidification in an alkaline grassland on the Loess Plateau.
