1 Introduction Against the backdrop of implementing the green and low-carbon development strategy and establishing the “dual carbon” target in China [1, 2], the demand for natural gas continues to increase, and the country's external dependence has been increasing year by year [3], reaching 42.3% in 2023.

Abstract : Soil microbes play crucial roles in grassland ecosystem functions, such as soil carbon (C) pool and nutrient cycle. Soil microbes in grasslands are susceptible to the degradation mediated by climate change and anthropogenic disturbance. However, research on how the degradation influences the diversity and community structure of different soil microbial taxa is relatively scarce.
