Desert wetlands have been seriously degraded recently. However, the variation patterns of soil bacterial community across the degradation and the mechanisms that drive them are still unclear. They hin
The data presented here relate to the manuscript led by Thomas Turpin-Jelfs on Soil nitrogen response to shrub encroachment in a degrading semiarid grassland.
We separately established grassland degradation sequences across six distinct sites (spanning 2,000 km) to investigate how soil nematode biomass, diversity, and energy flux respond to degradation, and
1. The current human-induced intensification of grazing pressure and the increase of aridity as a result of climate alterations are unprecedented and have been identified as the main drivers that caus
