Effects of environmental spatial variation in structuring ammonia-oxidizing microbial communities in arid grassland
Poster Number: 144 Presenter/Primary Author: Paul Brewer The enormous biodiversity of soil microbial communities is likely caused, in part, by a similar diversity of soil microhabitats. Understanding how the environmental properties that create div

Poster Number: 142 Presenter/Primary Author: Courtney Naff Microbial communities play a key role in food web dynamics of marine, freshwater and soil ecosystems.
Linkages among specialized microbial communities across LTER landscapes: Developing the metacommunity concept
Recent research in a broad range of environments suggests that microbial communities are well-adapted and fine tuned to local environmental conditions and available resources. Across landscap Session: Working Group Session 5 - Wednesday Room Assignment: Longs Peak - Boulder Field (85)
Harvard Forest LTER V: New Science, Synthesis, Scholarship, and Strategic Vision for Society

Niche differentiation of ammonia-oxidizing microbial communities and their function in soil
Poster Number: 127 Presenter/Primary Author: Yevgeniy Marusenko Soil archaea and bacteria are known to oxidize ammonia to nitrite in a key step of nitrification, which may be affected by N inputs from natural (e.g., mineralization) or anthropogenic (e.g., atmos
