The physical and chemical changes that accompany permafrost thaw directly influence the microbial communities that mediate the decomposition of formerly frozen organic matter, leading to uncertainty in permafrost–climate feedbacks. Although changes to microbial metabolism and community structure are documented following ...
How soil microorganisms respond to global warming is key to infer future soil-climate feedbacks, yet poorly understood. In this study an international team of authors with participation of members of TER, applied metatranscriptomics to investigate microbial physiological responses to medium-term ...
Congratulations to Christian Ranits, who successfully defended his MSc thesis on Friday 29th April 2022. His thesis on “What controls microbial growth in tropical soils? The role of carbon and phosphorus“ was very well received.
Congratulations to Sean Darcy, who successfully defended his MSc thesis on Wednesday 23rd March 2022.
His thesis on “Drivers of the root mycobiome in a mixed temperate beech forest" was very well received.
Excellent, Sean!
Congratulations to Michaela Bachmann, who successfully defended her MSc thesis on Thursday 10th March 2022.

Congratulations to Leila Hadžiabdić, who successfully defended her MSc thesis on Monday 17th January 2022. Her thesis on “Quantification of key genes in microbial phosphorus cycling in soils" was very well received.
Excellent, Leila!
Recently photoassimilated carbon and fungus-delivered nitrogen are spatially correlated in the ectomycorrhizal tissue of Fagus sylvatica: Ectomycorrhizal plants trade plant-assimilated carbon for soil nutrients with their fungal partners. The underlying mechanisms, however, are not fully understood. In this paper TER ...
