🌾 7-year study in N China finds drought shifts C:N:P in plants, litter & soil microbes, reducing productivity and ecosyst resilience. Plant traits like leaf N, C, and height influence these effects #NutrientCycling #AridEcosystems

Traits such as spines & water storage vessels allow #cacti to thrive in #aridecosystems. These traits are also useful indicators of #ecosystemintegrity. Paredes Cubas & colleagues from @universidadjaen explore 12 standardised measures of functional traits in #Cactaceae 🌵🔗https://buff.ly/Rc1J5K4
