Soil bacterial diversity and abundance prediction

Content This repository contains data from the publication entitled "Soil bacterial diversity mediated by microscale aqueous-phase processes across biomes" (Bickel and Or, 2020; https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-019-13966-w). The netCDF file contains maps of predicted bacterial diversity and abundance, as well as the variables used in the heuristic model (HM) from Bickel and Or (2020): D0 = Richness (counts)D1 = Shannon index (base e)muT = Temperature dependency of maintenance rate (Schoolfield) (-)wc = Climatic water content (CWC) (m3 m-3)por = Porosity (m3 m-3)L = Soil unit length (m)cd = Cell density (cells m-3)dx = Soil textural length (m) Citation Bickel, S., Or, D.
