Precipitation Effects on Soil Carbon Cycling in the Sonoran Desert

Biological activity in desert soils is driven by water availability. The nature of individual precipitation events is critical to understanding soil moisture availability. Rain falls as discrete events (pulses) that vary in size and sequencing, resulting in soil "wet-dry cycles". Soil o...
