Playas, saline-rich springs surrounded by halite evaporates (also called salt pans) have played an essential role in landscape erosion during the formation of the Namib Desert and are numerous in its central region. In this study, we used shotgun metagenomics to investigate the phylogenetic and functional capacities of the microbial communities in...
