Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Jingshang Xiao"
- Jingshang Xiao's research primarily focuses on the ecological functions and interactions of biological soil crusts (BSCs) in dryland ecosystems, particularly in relation to desertification control and nutrient cycling.
- Recent studies have explored the impact of microbial communities and exopolysaccharides (EPS) on the stability and resilience of BSCs, emphasizing their roles in carbon storage and substrate metabolism under varying environmental conditions.
- Findings indicate that factors such as seasonal changes, nutrient availability, and physical disturbances significantly influence the composition and functionality of BSCs, suggesting their crucial role in ecological rehabilitation efforts in arid regions.
