Drivers for Environmental Microorganisms

Environmental microbiota are key players for ecosystem service fulfilment. They are essential for balanced nutrient cycling, air and water quality, carbon sequestration, climate regulation, resistance to pathogens and others. The degree of service fulfilment is strongly driven by different environmental and anthropogenic factors like ecosystem biodiversity, land use intensity, land use type and climate change.
