Hydroxyl Radical‐Driven Oxidation as a Key Pathway for Greenhouse Gas Production During Soil Drying–Rewetting
After soil rewetting in dryland, a large amount of greenhouse gases (CO2 and N2O) is released within a short period. We found that the activation of microorganisms during this process generates subst....
