Microbial community composition of transiently wetted Antarctic Dry Valley soils

Microbial community composition of transiently wetted Antarctic Dry Valley soils

During the summer months, wet (hyporheic) soils associated with ephemeral streams and lake edges in the Antarctic Dry Valleys (DV) become hotspots of biological activity and are hypothesized to be an important source of carbon and nitrogen for arid DV soils. Recent research in the DV has focused on...
