There is both in-text citations and a bibliography.
“Changes in intensity of drying-rewetting cycles can also alter ecosystem functioning (Ciais et al., 2005; Breda et al., 2006; Schwalm et al., 2010; Shi et al., 2014; Sun et al., 2016).”
The article has been peer reviewed. In the Acknowledgements, the authors thank 2 anonymous reviewers for their contribution.
We thank Ning Mai, Yi-Xuan Zhu and Cheng-Fu Wei for assistance with the experiment and the two anonymous reviewers for their valuable comments.
It is a research paper because it has a ‘Methods’ and ‘Results’ section in the article.
