(2016, background): “…ecosystem process models by parameterizing microbial physiological properties such as drought tolerance (Manzoni et al., 2014), growth eﬃciency (Hagerty et al., 2014), dormancy (Wang et al., 2015), and turnover rates (Wieder et al., 2013), these models often fail to consider variation in…”
