Physical ecology of hypolithic communities in the central Namib Desert: The role of fog, rain, rock habitat, and light
Hypolithic microbial communities are productive niches in deserts worldwide, but many facets of their basic ecology remain unknown. The Namib Desert is an important site for hypolith study because it has abundant quartz rocks suitable for colonization and extends west to east across a transition fro...
