Nitrogen fixation and diurnal changes of photosynthetic activity in Arctic soil crusts at different development stage
Nitrogen fixation and photosynthesis provided by microbial phototrophs (cyanobacteria and eukaryotic microalgae) are important processes occurring in Arctic soil crusts. Here, we describe and compare these processes in biological soil crusts from Central Svalbard at different stages of development....
