Soil biodiversity and network complexity jointly drive soil multifunctionality in an open cast coal mine
Our findings demonstrate that reclamation strategy influences SMF through shifts in multidimensional soil biodiversity and network architecture. The results underscore the importance of integrating multi-taxon and multi-dimensional attributes-such as community composition and co-occurrence networks-to fully elucidate how soil communities drive ecosystem multifunctionality during restoration.
