Abstract

Soil microbes perform a multitude of essential biological functions, including organic matter decomposition, nutrient cycling, and soil structure preservation. Qatar is one of the most hostile and fragile arid environments on earth and is expected to face a disproportionate impact of climate change in the coming years.
