Extreme heat events heighten soil respiration. [PDF]
AbstractIn the wake of climate change, extreme events such as heatwaves are considered to be key players in the terrestrial biosphere. In the past decades, the frequency and severity of heatwaves have risen substantially, and they are projected to continue to intensify in the future.

Soil Respiration of Paddy Soils Were Stimulated by Semiconductor Minerals. [PDF]
Large quantities of semiconductor minerals on soil surfaces have a sensitive photoelectric response. These semiconductor minerals generate photo-electrons and photo-hole pairs that can stimulate soil oxidation–reduction reactions when exposed to sunlight.

Rainfall intensification increases the contribution of rewetting pulses to soil heterotrophic respiration [PDF]
Soil drying and wetting cycles promote carbon (C) release through large heterotrophic respiration pulses at rewetting, known as the “Birch” effect. Empirical evidence shows that drier conditions before rewetting and larger changes in soil moisture at ...

Global warming accelerates soil heterotrophic respiration
Carbon efflux from soils is the largest terrestrial carbon source to the atmosphere, yet it remains one of the most uncertain fluxes in the Earth’s carbon budget. A dominant component of this flux is heterotrophic respiration, influenced by several environmental factors, most notably soil temperature and moisture.

Soil respiration under different land uses in Eastern China. [PDF]
Land-use change has a crucial influence on soil respiration, which further affects soil nutrient availability and carbon stock. We monitored soil respiration rates under different land-use types (tea gardens with three production levels, adjacent ...

Vegetation types alter soil respiration and its temperature sensitivity at the field scale in an estuary wetland. [PDF]
Vegetation type plays an important role in regulating the temporal and spatial variation of soil respiration. Therefore, vegetation patchiness may cause high uncertainties in the estimates of soil respiration for scaling field measurements to ecosystem ...

Spatial and temporal variations of soil microbial respiration under native and exotic tree species [PDF]
Different tree species can directly or indirectly affect soil conditions. They influence soil microbial diversity and abundance and hence soil respiration.

Impact of environmental factors and biological soil crust types on soil respiration in a desert ecosystem. [PDF]
The responses of soil respiration to environmental conditions have been studied extensively in various ecosystems. However, little is known about the impacts of temperature and moisture on soils respiration under biological soil crusts.
