This data-set contains nucleotide sequences associated with the following described study. In this study, C-fixation rates measured in the bulk arid soils (<5% moisture) ranged from below detection limits to ~12 nmol C/cc/h. Rates in ephemerally wet soils ranged from ~20 to 750 nmol C/cc/h, equat...
