Biocrusts’ impact on hydrological processes and erosion dynamics: A review
Biological soil crusts (BSCs), functioning as the “living skin” and “ecosystem engineers” of arid and semi-arid desert regions, are composite structures formed by cyanobacteria, lichens, mosses, and their symbiotic microorganisms. Through mechanisms including extracellular polymeric substances (EPSS...
