Influence of environmental variables on SOC contents among soil fractions by random forest models.

🔄 How #SoilOrganicCarbon (SOC) storage and its stabilizing mechanism vary along #AltitudinalGradients ❓

Results:
Altitudes ⬆️, SOC contents →
⭐ bulk soils and #HeavyFractions ⬆️;
⭐ #SoilAggregates ➖;
➡️➡️ The increase in Fe/Al oxides might be the reason.

🔬 And what shapes functional diversity?
📌 Elevation!
🌄 Higher elevation fragments showed more functional richness, evenness, and specialization.
Amphibians are finely tuned to their microclimates.
