Response Patterns of Three Types of Biocrust to Reduced Rainfall
Biological soil crusts (biocrusts), compound organisms covering the terrestrial land surface and consisting of living organisms—algae, lichen, moss, and soil particles—cover ~30% of global drylands and play crucial roles in ecosystem functions and services. Climate change, especially rainfall regime...
