Five-year measurement data along a 1200 m elevational gradient reveals that global warming increases soil respiration

Frontiers in Forests and Global Change, 2023
Soil respiration is a major pathway for CO2 emissions from ecosystems. Owing to its temperature dependency, the soil respiration rate is expected to increase due to global warming, particularly at high elevations.
