Decomposition causes short-term increases in functional molecular diversity of dissolved organic matter

Microbial decomposition of plant litter initially increases the molecular diversity of dissolved organic matter, but prolonged microbial recycling diminishes this diversity, highlighting how microbial metabolism influences soil carbon turnover.
