Tundra ecosystems are typically carbon (C) rich but nitrogen (N) limited. Since biological N<sub>2</sub> fixation is the major source of biologically available N, the soil N<sub>2</sub>-fixing (i.e., diazotrophic) community serves as an essential N supplier to the tundra ecosystem. Recent climate warming has induced deeper permafrost thaw and adversely affected C sequestration, which is modulated by N availability. Therefore, it is crucial to examine the responses of diazotrophic communities to ...[more]
