In this edition of #microjc, we’ll discuss a recent review and synthesis paper exploring models of soil biogeochemistry. These models are valuable for understanding and predicting the outcomes of climate change and environmental disturbances. However, the authors of this paper argue that current models don’t adequately consider biotic interactions, such as predation and competition. What exactly is missing from these models, and how can we improve them? We’ll tackle this topic, and I will brush up on my Michaelis-Menten equations. Join us!
