title: Effects of Hyporheic Water Exchange on Microbial Community Structure and Function: A Case Study in the Beiluo River, Loess Plateau, China
abstract: ABSTRACT Microbial communities in riverine hyporheic zones provide essential ecosystem services. However, the mechanisms whereby they respond to hyporheic water exchange under different habitat stress conditions remain poorly understood. Therefore, investigating the impact of riverine hyporheic exchange on the microbial community composition and its potential ecological function is essential, particularly in the seasonal rivers of northern China. To elucidate the structure and function of hyporh
