WinMicAct investigates how desert soil microorganisms utilize non-rain water sources to activate and sustain microbial activity. The project aims to redefine our understanding of microbial processes in drylands and their ecological significance under climate change.
Soil microorganisms are essential drivers of ecosystem processes in drylands that cover ~40% of the Earth’s landmasses.
It is widely accepted that microbial activity in arid deserts is confined to rare, short and unpredictable rain pulses.
Yet, water could be available for soil microorganism by other processes, such as dew formation, fog deposition and water vapor adsorption.
These so-called non-rain water inputs represent significant sources of water, as they are more frequent and reliable.
