Depth-dependent microbial roles and associations with soil multifunctionality along an afforestation chronosequence in a hyper-arid desert

Soil multifunctionality refers to the capacity of soil to support multiple ecosystem processes (e.g., nutrient cycling, organic matter stabilization), which is mediated by soil microorganisms. Afforestation is a pivotal strategy for combating desertification in hyper-arid regions...
