Effects of soil organic matter properties and microbial community composition on enzyme activities in cryoturbated arctic soils.

Enzyme-mediated decomposition of soil organic matter (SOM) is controlled, amongst other factors, by organic matter properties and by the microbial decomposer community present. Since microbial community composition and SOM properties are often interrelated and both change with soil depth, the driver...
